Imagine a world where you don't own a car, just call for a ride and it appears. . .

And when it appears, it is without a driver. Those days are coming sooner than you may think. All the major car companies have developed working prototypes of driverless cars. Think of the implications. We should see these in the real world within the next two to three years. Within 10 or twenty years, these driverless cars may be the only cars on the road. "Smart" cars on "smart" roads will reduce or eliminate traffic accidents. It also has the potential to increase the number of vehicles using the roads as they will all be communicating with one another. Spacing between vehicles could be much less since the human reaction time to an abrupt stop is removed from the equation. The car in front of you will tell your car what it will be doing in advance of doing it. Cars without such technology, either will be retrofitted in some manner, or will be relegated to special areas or times when they can be used for recreation. Think of cruising in your 1957 Chevy. Maybe this will spring to life Automotive Heritage zones where people are allowed to drive their older analog vehicles. Maybe one of those areas could be our own Dixie Hwy. in Lake Worth?
