FFS, can we just go back to talking to each other in person and driving our own vehicles? Where'd the 90s go?

If the car drives itself we will have more time to talk to each other in person.

Or invest in public transport instead

Actually, we’ve just returned to 2007.

Just this morning I was almost killed twice on my bike ride to work by two separate drivers, one of whom looked to be 80 and could barely see over the dashboard, and one who was on their phone. I didn’t even bother trying to remember the plate numbers, knowing that the odds of any kind of consequences are absolute zero. No, we can’t go back to driving our own vehicles. Waymo everywhere and human driving outlawed, ASAP.
