What would you pay for autonomous driving? Volkswagen hopes $8.50 per hour
Having finally had a chance to test-&quot;drive&quot; an advanced autopilot Tesla last weekend, I can confidently say at the current level of that tech I would pay less than nothing.  At best (cruising down a well-marked highway) it was only slightly worse than useless, taking a different line in the lane than I considered optimal, leaving me feeling a background level of apprehension.  From there it ranged through frustrating, as it took forever to do anything, to jarring, as it would for example suddenly slam on the brakes because it just noticed it was passing a parked car.<p>If I had a regular commute and self-driving was considerably beyond human competence I&#x27;d love to have it, but I don&#x27;t see either one happening any time soon!
