I like the idea of self driving cars, especially for people with mobility issues but they'll never be safe enough for use without their own infrastructure because of the complexity and also terrible design of American roads. Personally I think its better to spend our tax dollars on building better public transit and human sized transportation methods but the absurd amount of push back from both the populace and also the government basically guarantees it isn't going to happen in my life time. But i generally don't see the self-driving car experiment working out in the long run.
