  1. Why was I ever optimistic about autonomous vehicles if we can't even expect people to be capable of using and feeling cruise control?

    1. @oracle self-driving cars can't possibly be more dangerous than regular drivers in DC

    2. @oracle Using and feeling comfortable with, sorry. I know a few people who feel that cruise control s dangerous and takes control away from them. I was hopeful that younger people would be more open to the idea, but many of my classmates are strongly opposed to the idea.

      1. My honest opinion is that the general public should not be instructed with ability to drive, or at the very least, the privilege should require stricter testing standards. People (humans as a whole) are not as intelligent as we perceive ourselves to be. We are stupid, dull, prideful, creatures that make terrible judgments at the expense of all others.

        1. @oracle I definitely think the standards for piloting a kinetic bombardment device through populated areas should be more stringent, as well.
