Hi Kirk, You are very much in the nerve center of where some think auto's are going. Never really thought of autonomous cars further clogging the roads. If they must be throttled back who needs them? No doubt an evolutionary thing. As far as I'm concerned - I'm not interested in the least. I enjoy being seen in what I ride and I like driving vehicles of all types. I see the making of cars and the electronics of cars as two completely differing skill sets. No doubt drive trains are several complete subsets gas, diesel ,and electronic. Telecommunications is a new subset - wifi (hands free texting and voice recognition have a huge place in the future). My rides will be simple and will feature me with my hands on the wheel. I have never been an early adopter and more than likely will remain a bit old fashioned by preference. Wonder if road rage on an autonomous vehicle will be greater? - after all no one to blame but that slow POS in front of you!! May the frustration not be with you!! Bob
