I was just having that conversation at work during lunch yesterday. A friend
said he rented a big SUV and it had collision assist. He said if you tried to
change lanes without the blinker it would jerk you back in the lane. He said it
almost made he hit someone a couple of times so he had to tur

I'm against SDVs now, but I also disagree they are a dead end. The problem
here is that it's just plain stupid to try to go from zero autonomy to full
autonomy in one rapid sweep. Not only is the tech not ready, the public

This discussion is technically off-topic for the EVDL, but it seems to

In this case that would seem to be the cause. It is certainly clear that the

I think self driving cars could be really safe. And, they'd be faster
too because the road could be run with very little gap between cars so

drivers who are trying to drive while also staying in contact with their
family, answering customers and colleagues and keeping their Facebook status
