Self driving cars will not become the norm in your lifetime.

Charge you a self-driving car fee, raise the gas tax, and open container tickets will go up.

I'm glad that writing tickets is only a small part of our job. No cop likes working wrecks.

Driving is a choice. How about you just take the bus if you don't want to drive.

Problem solved.

I believe in the future of self-driving vehicles. But many people will still own their own as well. Personally, I don't ever see the day where I give up my freedom to drive whenever I want. If I'm cooking at the house and need to make a run to the store, I am not going to want to wait 10 minutes for a car to pick me up.

Sometimes I'm running late to work in the morning and need to drive faster. Sometimes I like to take different routes. I tow a boat a lot during the summer months. I can't see how towing a boat will become easier, faster, and less of a hassle with self driving vehicles in my lifetime.

I'm sure they will devise a new regulation similar to inspection stickers...where the government has to verify the cars are working properly
