You think? Make sure you let me know the dates...I will 'steer clear'....

Seriously, I am not sure I would ever trust driverless cars. There would always be this urge to jump in the driving seat and take over (probably impossible)

I'll bet the London cyclists will be the first to be making their objections known.

I think they will have a human driver in case anything goes wrong but I don't know how quickly they will be able to react if the car gets out of control!

When you think about it, it's probably no different to a driving instructor's dual-control arrangement.

@Beenherebefore That makes sense. I would assume the human will be in the driver seat with hands on the controls just in case.
