Bingo! Between the inevitable s/w bugs in the systems, the variables that the s/w programmers didn't factor into their logic, the fact that electronics CAN and DO fail, I don't think we'll get to a point where you could trust a mass-produced product like an automobile containing the complexity of an airplane to hold up in everyday driving conditions. I think about my 1980 vintage Ford tractor with a diesel engine. All it needs to run electrically is a starter. Once it's running, no electrical problem will stop it. Can't get much simpler than that. And it's been working for almost 40 years. What about a 10 yr old driverless car? Think all those circuit boards and sensors built by the lowest bidder will last that long? It wouldn't take much to render a car worthless due to expense of fixing. Heck, we're pretty much there now where a moderate collision can total ($$$) a car because all the airbags go off. I'm definitely against it: too complicated, too expensive, not needed. It's designed by and for the lazy millenials, IMO.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
