How quickly do you think this technology will advance?
Overall, are you in favour of it?
What advantages and disadvantages do you foresee?
On balance, I think I'm in favour, partly for selfish reasons. I'll be 50 soon, so I hopefully have 25-30 years of driving left in me. I wonder if the tech and legislation will have advanced enough by then for me to buy a car (or transport pod as they might be called by then ) that I can get in and say 'take me to 18 The Avenue, Townsville' and then sit back and leave the vehicle to do the rest. Meaning I could still be shuttled around door to door when my days of driving might be behind me.
Wishful thinking perhaps as 25-30 years isn't that far away, but you never know!
