How does it feel to know that humans driving cars will be outlawed in the forseeable future (our lifetimes)? Self driving cars are already on the road an they work. They crash LESS than people, that means theyre better and they're only going to improve.

Here's why people wont be able to drive in the future

>Self driving cars crash less
This saves lives, and also saves a fuckload of money. Do you really wanna pay the hospital bill for some dumbass 18 year old girl snapchatting and driving? How about all of the emergency services, the negative economic effect of the traffic caused, and people that are valuable to the economy and society dying.
>Self driving cars means no traffic.
No more dumbfucks cutting people off and creating bottlenecks on the highways. No more dumbfucks not going at a green and causing you to miss the light. Speed limits will be higher because a computer has a faster reaction time and can brake faster. This means that not only will banning human driving cars get people places faster, which they like, but it will also cause economic growth, because shit just moves faster.
>Self driving cars save time
Have a 1 hour drive, and also have work to do? Good, you can sit back in your self driving car and work away on your laptop. How about reading a book, or watching a movie? Normies are going to prefer this and jump right at the technology, making it more and more popular

Now here's the argument for why you should be allowed to drive a car on public roads

>It's fun! it's my hobby (to break the laws that already exist and hoon)
Just go to a fucking track. That's what you should be doing anyways.

Which side has a stronger argument in a senate/parliamentary hearing?

So, Veeky Forums. Now that you realize that driving a car on the road will be illegal in your lifetime, how are you going to prepare for this? Me, I'm thinking of moving to a city with a good nearby track.

Having been hospitalized once with surgery on my left leg and being hit by a red-light runner, I welcomed the self-driving cars after finally getting rammed up the ass by some faggot bitch texting.
>Oh whoops, sorry!
>Oh man, wow, I didn't even check the traffic light
>Sorry I only had 2 drinks before I left

Fuck people, they don't deserve to drive.

recreational tracks will probably increase in demand. Probably a business opportunity there.

Good thing I don't care about the law.

I don't really mind at all because with self driving blobs, the manually operated car market will be oriented towards performance enthusiasts because manually operated cars will only (legally) be on the track

>what is grandfathering

what if they don't make manually operated cars anymore though?

Why wouldn't they? They still breed horses and make saddles

...

top fucking kek user

shut up

It'll be great when they outlaw human drivers in the first world, and I will be able to drive.

Also, we'll get your cars dirt cheap because there will be millions of cars no one will want anymore.

>implying they wont have a cash for clunkers like program and have all the normies crush their regular cars in exchange for money

They might end up banning human-driven vehicles from certain roads/highways, but I don't think there will be a need to outlaw them outright. Once self-driving vehicles become widely available, soaring insurance rates for human-driven vehicles will force most people into self-driving cars, at least for street use.

A lot of cars will probably get retrofitted. Many modern cars already have most of the equipment they'd need- just add a computer and a few more cameras, hook it up to the car's electronics, and drive everything by wire.

top fucking kek, i knew it was going to be burt reynolds when he wrote firebird trans am.

Doubt it will ever happen OP

If everyone's in a self driving car I can safely ride my motorcycle. It will be a golden age of riding for me.

I am all for self driving cars and honestly welcome them. I have an hour long daily commute that would be half an hour without fuckheads driving 2 miles an hour on a 65 to watch someone get a speeding ticket.

However you have a wholly optimistic approach OP. Our infrastructure is set up to profit from crashes. It would take a lot more than "it saves lives!" to foster systematic change within the government. The amount of money traffic infractions brings in revenue to police, prisons, insurance companies, courthouses, and third party companies alone is enough for the advent of self driving cars to be delayed for a good while. That's without taking into consideration all the other pieces of the auto puzzle and economic changes that would come with self driving cars.

everyone will be riding Ruckus' soon anyway

Ill just ride my uninsured un registered motorcycle. It will probably be much nice to ride with self driving cars not trying to kill me.

>bus drivers
>taxi drivers
>truck drivers
>delivery people (UPS, pizza, etc.)
>a lot of construction workers
>any other job imvolving non-sport driving
Can self-driving car faggots come up with practical new jobs for these people?

They will just make seperate but equal lanes
One for automated driverless pussies
One for electric/hybrid manual driven
And finally a gas powered lane that will require tolls-taxes to use. And i will gladly spend my kids college fund to drive it

>as technology advances people become unemployed as their jobs become obsolete
Big surprise
>what should these displaced people do?
Go on unemployment? Receive a basic income to survive? Oh wait, that's socialism and therefore bad

...

but that doesn't cost nearly as much as an entire industry that makes cars

for once I am grateful for the government's greed

>tfw everyone is a busfag again and I don't feel as bad about never getting a car

this made me feel something i haven't felt in awhile

for cities maybe. The day a self driving chastity cage can nagivate rural roads in britain is the day we all have cyborg implants and are living on mars.

Fuck it, id set them the hardest challeneges i could:

>Google car, take me to Ambleside via "the struggle"
>car slides helplessly off the side

>Google car, take me to my old flat
>car shaken to pieces by the enormous potholes

>Google car, take me to X via the magic roundabout in Hemel
>complete sensory overload, car malfunctions and catches fire

>Google car, take me on the coventry ring road
>satnav can't keep up, car stuck on the ring road like some eternal NASCAR hell

you are as dumb as a fucking american southerner if you think a computer cant figure that shit out.


look at how fast computer tech advances and realize in the next 20 years that will be ezpz for computers in that era

>yuropoors defending cuckery
color me surprised

The cars will report if you don't take them in for servicing when there is something wrong. You might even lose a court case over that because the accident occurred due you not servicing your car - willful negligence.

Your automated car phones home and your warranty is invalidated due to improper maitenance.

Hopefully the modern cars will have an insurance code input. When you buy insurance, the agent hands to you a code key or you get one in the mail. It verifies to the car you have insurance and it can then automatically phone home to check that coverage is current for that day, week, or month, year after year. If there is no insurance, you can still drive but it will report to the government that it is being driven without coverage. That is double plus good.

>Google car, take me on the coventry ring road
That example shows you didn't read about the technology google had already been working on years ago. That will be one of the easier things for it to do. The intelligent cars from all the different companies will probably be forced to use a common communication method. Various companies such as google and others have worked on systems where cars communicate to the other cars adjacent to them. Thus cars will cooperate with each other and improve road congestion.

The car communication system WILL be required by the government. It's one of those things that simply needs to be finalized as to whose competing system wins out as being the next IEEE or ISO standard.

How do you know?

And both of those things are now exponentially more expensive than they were before the popularization of the car.

Also good luck driving your horse on the road or being able to feed it in a town or city.

this

>making 2 horses fuck
>more expensive than manufacturing cars with power-hungry electronic robots
hmm I guess I don't really know

>How does it feel to know that humans driving cars will be outlawed in the forseeable future
That won't be outlawed.
But the insurance rates will make it too expensive for a lot of people to manually drive their cars for more than 10% or whatever percentage number the statistics allow.

Your fault for being too fucking reliant on the traffic light

It's pretty much an unwritten rule in life that nobody really gives a fuck about you.

>Also good luck driving your horse on the road
Completely legal anywhere where it's legal do drive a bicycle.

america's roads would need to be perfect for self driving cars to happen. which won't happen
