Am I an old fart for being concerned about future generations growing up with self driving cars?

I guess I grew up with a lot of automated things, but I feel like driving is something that people should be able to do for safety reasons.

Have you not met “people”? People drive like absolute idiots. I had to emergency brake just yesterday because the woman driving the car to my right was drifting into my lane at highway speeds while she negotiated a large 24oz can of some beverage in her left driving hand while simultaneously holding a cigarette. Her right hand and both eyes were busy doing something on her cell phone.

There is very little safe about people driving.

Liquid powered cars are more versatile compared to EVs. At least China will continue to produce them.

Only because current infrastructure supports them. They will only become less versatile going forward while EVs become more.

Nissan was one of the first car companies to ship an EV. Not sure what “catching up” they need to do.

I think it’s related to the rise of China’s BYD.

I assume that's about the self-driving part rather than the EV part. Honda was the first to actually sell something that met the requirements for the (American) Society of Automotive Engineers' Levels of Driving Automation that counted as the the human in the driver's seat not driving

I thought that was Mercedes (in Nevada), unless you’re talking about sales outside of America.

Title is confusing.

Edit: Isuzu uses at least some GMC sensors. So please explain to me where the confusion is.

Oh that’s right, they’re cross compatible, or at least they once were…
