So you have to sit in the driver's seat, have your feet near the pedal, have your hands hovering over the wheel and be looking out for hazards and this is "full automation"? lol. I'll stick to my manual ICE thanks. The technology simply isn't there yet.
When I can "drive" to a bar, get hammered and then get in the back seat and have my car drive me home, then I would be interested. Honestly though, I don't foresee automated cars being available to consumers. Companies running taxi services perhaps. Just imagine the insurance implications for a regular person. You're sitting there reading a book or something with the car driving itself and then boom, accident. Imagine the investigations. The manufacturer trying to wriggle out of taking responsibility, your insurance company doing the same. It would be a nightmare.

You understand that hammered means drunk right?
