Based on statistical analysis, the self driving cars are far more prone to error or accident than human drivers. Now, granted, there will be malfunctions, technical errors and various other things to worry about - but I believe this technology is a huge step in the right direction. Particularly... particularly if we can make all of these cars electric/solar or some kind of hybrid. We could greatly reduce our carbon footprint through that alone, I think.
No technology - especially new technology, is ever perfect, but to me, this stuff is very exciting - and very promising. Also... maybes it's just me, but I hate driving.
On Edit: It seems that these self driving cars actually have a much higher accident rate than conventional vehicles. Human error, however, should also be taken into account, along with the small sample size we have for these self driving vehicles. Nonetheless, I stand corrected. I appreciate the links and the enlightenment regarding this matter. (I have altered my post to accurately reflect new information, so as not to confuse or mislead anyone, only had to actually change one word in the top paragraph).
