    Had another discussion about it, and the question materialized: Would you as a developer sit/use in a self driving car? And under what circumstances/limitations?

    Yes, as long as they don't refer to me as beta tester. :)

      I'd rather drive it myself...as long as I have my brain working.........and i can see.. and as long as they have side mirrors and the rear view and the accelerator and the brake and the lights at night and....

        Think of how well Windows works after twenty years. A simple car shouldn't be a problem.

          Hell yeah, under the circumstance where I have to drive and I'd rather not so I let the car handle it which is pretty much always :D But, only in a few years when they're a bit more battle tested (and I can afford it) ;)

                Within a generation, people will look at you funny if your drive yourself. Pretty soon after that, it'll be illegal to do it for safety reasons. I'm actually amazed the people are allowed to drive at all! The things I've seen ... reading the paper, typing on a lappie, drunk as a skunk, having sex, rummaging in the glovebox, ...

                  As long as all the other cars on the road were also self driving... Otherwise, nope. I trust the software to do the right thing. I don't trust other (unpredictable) human drivers.

                    NO - I enjoy driving but then I live on the outskirts of a small rural city and do not have to deal with peak hour traffic anymore. Even when I had an 80km commute into Sydney I enjoyed the trip.
