Thinking on it, most drivers let the car do the work now.
Cars that have beeps, whistles and flashing lights if you get too near the car in front, go faster than the speed limit, wander near the center white line(s), and a camera for those difficult reversing maneuvers.

Sensors everywhere that operate the wipers at the first drop of rain, notify of a slight drop in tyre pressure, a continually updating map so you don't need to look at road signs, beeps for door open, boot open, fly open, . . . hands free phone kit so you can chat with your mate while overtaking at 95mph on the AI.

Driverless cars? . . already here Mr Musk
