"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Autonomous Cars Start to Take Shape

We've heard a lot of chatter about autonomous vehicles over the past several years and seen a variety of hardware. So far, most autonomous cars are rough, experimental versions of current models, with all kinds of added sensor hardware. The recent Geneva Motor Show flipped the autonomous vehicle inside out, showcasing several futuristic design studies that peeked inside the car cabin of the future.

The greatest danger I see with autonomous vehicles is not that they are a safety risk, but rather they might lead to some of the public rights-of-way being closed to human-driven or human-powered traffic. Be wary of any autonomous vehicle system that does not explicitly accomodate non-compliant vehicles or those broadcasting false information. They can only become practical via regulatory legislation.
