Hey Joe/Wes,
Read both articles you posted with great interest. Joe, I started reading in the mag you provided the link for and, before I knew it, I was 3 articles along! Great periodical.
And Wes, I hear you re bad drivers... up here in Canada (or BC at least) they have changed the law that if you hog the left lane and hold up traffic, it is a pretty expensive ticket!! Seems to work; people do their passing and get back over to the right lane. Re self-driving cars - I definitely think they're 'coming', just not as fast and definitely not as universally as to make today's 'regular' vehicles extinct in 20 years. Farm country, sparsely populated areas, and rural towns couldn't support the infrastructure it would need to HAVE 'autonomous modules', so as long as we don't live in a huge city or commute solely on interstate highways, we will be driving for a long while, yet. At least that's my opinion, FWIW. If you don't believe that, you should see where I live and drive!! Rural, to say the least! Chris
