I would. Hate driving, especially in Bangkok traffic jams. Right now getting by with combo of taxis, trains, motorbikes. But having own vehicle that.you can just tell where to go without arguing over fare or getting rejected as it's too far or inconvenient or there's traffic jam... And being able to leave mid way and tell it to go back home as there's too much traffic and I'm late... And most importantly not drive like a lunatic... Yeah, I'd take this over taxi anytime. 

Hire a responsible driver. Way cheaper than owning a car and you can do all you ask for above.

and there's your answer, Messrs bosses of Apple...

 

 - start up an autonomous i-uber market plan

merging is not supposed to be done at 1 mph.  The idea of  merging is that you accelerate to the same speed as the traffic you are joining and move into a gap.  Poor driving.

that's right!   you come up/down to meet the speed of the traffic flow

I have been working in the IT business since back in the 80's and never understood the hype about Apple. And here I am 40 years later and never touched an Apple product. I am still alive and happy .

DITTO. And Steve job used to p me off with his utterly hypocritical attitude to Android

 I don't understand the purpose of this article. It seems to me that this was a common garden variety accident that could happen to any car , and has nothing to do with its self driving capability.

It'll be a future where dozens of people are hurt by driverless cars instead of thousands hurt by cars with human drivers in them. 

 

Why does everyone think that driverless cars = totally harmless & fatality-free?  I'm wondering how you feel about air travel.  Airplanes do crash sometimes, you know.

Aircraft have pilots!

The point was to compare something you have control over with something you don't (unless you are the pilot).
