There is a meme out there where it says that Raccoons are trying to break into them because they think the trucks look like dumpsters. Don't really believe it's happening but I think it's hysterical.
I dont really care about "electric cars", but I do enjoy seeing the self driving car concept being pushed.
I think that with the greying population we have, that self driving cars will really benefit a lot of people as WE get too old to drive but can otherwise remain independent.
I especially want the tech pushed hard enough, that by the time I need it, I want the tech to be second or third generation. I dont want to have to deal with early adaptor issues.
I absolutely hate FSD cars and the thought of them. I will NEVER submit my safety to any self driving platform, but you make an excellent point.
It's not just the greying population - drivers today as a group are the worse they have ever been in the 50 plus years I've been driving. I can see where even a FSD operated car will be safer to other drivers (me) than if these dolts had full control of their cars.
The only thing about it that interests me is that I like the idea of having a vehicle with a stainless steel body so you don’t have to take care of the paint. But I have heard that there have been rusting issues with it.
