Not that it's currently possible, but having the infrastructure designed around self driving cars (meaning the road and signs themselves are built to communicate useful information to the car ) and the network of cars communicating with each other, we could achieve high speeds, smooth insertion in traffic etc. The benefits would be stopping congestion in cities, reducing pollution as well as reducing/eliminating car crashes
In that case, there would be absolutely no way we could allow manual driving. The benefits are just too great. Obviously I'm talking about a best case scenario where things actually work as they should.
You do realise this is never going to happen? Especially not with countries that are already running on budget deficits. If you want the roads to be privatised (whom then eventually will setup tolls) be my guest... but leave me out of it lmao.
