It's going to happen and it's going to happen a lot quicker than you think. Doesn't mean we have to like it.

Don't be so sure. This is a far greater challenge than any computer controlled system in existence. A manned round trip to Jupiter is less challenging.

For real effectiveness, we're talking about the need for a level of true AI that doesn't exist yet. For human beings, driving is a very simple task. Ever think of the millions of instant calculations and human judgement calls you make every moment while driving? It's so much more complex than you think.

Think about when you're driving in snow and the massive amount of adjustments you make. Or that ice patch that you can spot on a downward grade and making necessary changes.

How about the tons of traffic interactions you run into such as waiving or flashing someone on. How about navigating through a tight construction zone with activity going on everywhere?

Even if you could figure every conceivable scenario out in the real world, will it be able to do it as fast as human driving? Everyone is always in a rush, I have a feeling automated cars will be very slow because it just couldn't match human to human traffic interaction that makes traffic flow as smooth as it does.

auto drive in rain/snow is the problem because of radar.

I'm putting on my thinking cap...
