Right now cars are driven around by error making humans, if a car could have a computer do the driving there is no more crashes, better traffic, etc. Why haven't we done this yet? Is it some B.S. about driving the wide open road? Etc

as long as you only want to drive places that have been extensively LIDAR mapped and you're willing to wait for some dude in an indonesian call centre to manually put in some rule fixes every time there's construction

should work just fine

If there is construction it just goes in construction mode

Every time I see one of those Uber self-driving cars I want to jump in front of it all of a sudden because I was kinda thinking of doing that anyway with a regular car.
