Driverless cars & trains

[Lester Perry]

I heard that the driverless cars will still require a driver to make those kind of decisions. Also the technology takes into account people crossing in front of the car. The only case as you say if it's a area where the speeds are higher, then no, the technology would not be able to react

Also - I don't like it because the driverless cars will most likely go the speed limit or 5 MPH over. Unusable around here where everyone routinely drives 10 - 15 MPH over the limit on the highways..

I don't live that far from you and was wondering where you find 10 - 15 MPH over. From my experience especially on I 95 I 495 & De 1 you will get run over at those speeds.
I have a Chrysler 300C. I needed tires for it and had to get high speed tires by law. They must survive 150 mph. That blew me away so I did some research, My car has a top speed of 195. It has a governor on it to limit it to 149. Uh has anyone here ever driven 149 mph ? Anyway If they can govern it to 149 why not 69 ? Whoa That would mean I couldn't rum 85 on I 95 where the speed limit is 65. That would be to easy.

As far as the topic of auto pilot goes. If they could use radar or what ever to apply brakes it you are tailgating or drive erratically as when you pass out or fall asleep. I would be OK with that. And drunk drivers. Just take their car from them. Will you loan your friend your car if the government took his car because of DUI. I know this is all to simple.
