You'd actually be able to go out for a few drinks at the pub without having to nominate someone to forgo alcohol! It would certainly alleviate parking problems alomg residential roads.

Yes, but humans as drivers don't have an awfully good record, do they?
If driverless cars actually had a much better safety record, I think people will come to accept them.

I'm thinking of getting one as my disabilities preclude me from driving.
I find it interesting that (Uber I think it was) have suspended tests after a woman was unfortunately killed. If the same criteria was applied to cars with drivers, they would all be banned!
Sadly, accidents will happen with cars driverless or otherwise, but I suspect that humans will make more errors. A driverless car, for example, won't suffer from fatigue or do an Ant McPartlin and drive whilst over the alcohol limit.
