As anyone who’s read this blog should know, I’m absolutely fascinated with the concept of self-driving vehicles.  I firmly believe that they are coming and while people may express some skepticism or hesitancy toward them, in the end this will be the future of cars/trucks.

In fact, I further believe people will no longer actually own a car, that we will travel to work or on vacation by “renting” a car via an app on our cellphone (or whatever equivalent service we use).  This self-driving vehicle will pick us up and take us to our destination and when we need to return home we call up another such vehicle and it takes us back.

All the while, we’ll be in the car reading our paper or playing on our tablet/smartphone.
