Autopilot cars will be useful as hybrids, with machine doing the boring part of not hitting the vehicle in front, staying in lane, and managing the boring miles. But they can't judiciously break laws as required, so humans will have to be able to tell them to ignore red lights and some pedestrians trying to do hijacking. They would be great for avoiding crashes due to momentary inattention. I'd pay real money for a 99% solution. They should be able to do better than the bottom decile of drivers fairly easily. Those drivers can barely keep their cars on the road and constantly disrupt traffic flows. Driving licences should be issued only to people who can do better than machines in tricky situations. The rest should get a bus, or taxi which could be operated by machines. Mqurice
