Could I really do this? Driverless car....and more.

My instant response to the shirt vid was, yeah sure, why not. But after a few seconds I noticed a twinge of panic. The absolute loss of control? That is not me. In the backseat with a panel? Ugh.

NOPE!

hmph!

No way, no how, nope.

Funny that as a kid, I saw driverless cars in a Transformers cartoon, and even THEN I sat there thinking; "I wouldn't want a car that drives itself".
