Self drive cars - What year?

I am going for 2021 for the first time that I get in a car and tell it where to go and I am the only person in the car.

Of course I mean the first time its not just some random cab and the driver has got out for a piss.

I'd say the technology is there now. The infrastructure is not yet?

i guess, it will first start in US, then rest of the world pick it up slowly., but for USA, 2018 will be enough for them, as there are already self driving cars around us.

That's true - It could be done if it was A - B from scratch.

I am asking when I will be able to get in a cab and tell the 'GAXI DRIVER' where I want to go and arrive safe and sound.

As a rule you take what you think (2021) and double or triple it and that's more like it. So maybe 2031 or 2041. People back in the 1990s and 1980s thought we would have flying cars by now.

I'll guess 2050.

The technology is here now and there is zero infrastructure needed. It will be here in 10 years.

Over a year ago I was in OC, California stopped at a red light. I watched one of these cars, pull up next to me in the right lane. I looked right through my vehicle window and into theirs. There was NO driver. It was a WTF moment. When the light turned green, it proceeded to drive forward, and I proceeded to slide in behind it, and see where it goes.

It was amazing to watch this thing drive through the city for the next 10-15 minutes. It kept driving at the correct speed, kept a safe/reasonable distance behind other vehicles. Stopped at the lights as needed, signals on when making turns. It was a cool and bizarre feeling all at the same time knowing this existed and I was able to watch it in motion.

Which is where the lack of infrastructure comes in.

Until there are electric cars that can run for more than an hour before running out of steam and charging points everywhere for them to fill up from it's a non-starter.

I saw someone testing one just yesterday on the commute home from work.

Unfortunately, nobody told the driver the car wasn't actually equipped with self-driving technology...they veered into a ditch and took out a hydro pole.

(black ice on the highway was also a contributing factor)

Traffic laws exist so vehicles don't collide. They exist so people - people being they key word - know what to expect with other people behind the wheel of other vehicles, creating order on the roadways.

Autonomy builds in the rules of yielding with computer speed, precision, and efficiency... an efficiency that far eclipses that of human limitations, or what "laws" are designed to protect us from.

Faster than most think. With the current speed Google is moving with their self driven cars I would say within the next 5 years. Just search the subject and you will be amazed to see how far Google is with this already.

Just like ATM machines eliminated tellers, just like cars eliminated the jobs of stage coach drivers, just like the airline industry eliminated the jobs of the transatlantic cruise ships...

And just like in those scenarios, technology moves our existence forward.

Anything is safer than having a transit system full of the retards I see driving. Stand at any intersection for 5 minutes, and watch elderly women that are 900 years old and barely able to turn the wheel... young women with 900 children in the back of her Suburban paying no attention to the road, and certainly has no ability to control that vehicle in an emergency or evasive maneuver situation... and these comprise the MAJORITY of drivers.

Removing the incompetence equation, let's talk about maintenance. How do you know the stoner behind you in his jalopy even has brakes that function? He can't even afford to change his tires. You don't know anything about the maintenance of his vehicle until he slams into the back of you at 50 mph, taking out you and the pedestrian you were stopping for.

So yeah, clearly a fully autonomous transit system would be safer than the bullshit we have right now.

Easily 95% of society should not have ever been issued a license.
