    I've often wondered what it would be like to have a lane of traffic on the freeway that was designated as a "computer-driven express lane", similar to current HOV express lanes. And then, as uptake increases, just slowly expand it across other lanes. This would ideally reduce meat-driven vehicles and increase consistency of driving.
