    This 9 min video discusses how we're not as close to the autonomous driving utopia as headlines make us think.

    It brings up several points, such as:

    • The inability of self-driving cars to cope with more difficult weather conditions.
    • People taking advantage of the non-aggressive behavior or the cars.
    • Self-driving cars' inability to replicate and read body language.
    • Their unfitness for dealing with unexpected situations.
    • The unpracticality of reading or being productive in the car due to motion sickness and need to conform to safe postures.
    • Social opposition.
