Waste treatment / recycling centers.

Sewers and plumbing have been around for centuries ... But it's GREAT that we no longer have to just dump it in the streets or rivers.

Not the "driverless" cars. What is the point in buying a car you don't drive?

I would not agree to give up so much control, to a machine. Well if they invested in a car they enjoyed and cared about they would probably think twice before smashing it into something. Next thing I know, ill be installing "onstar" to my driverless car and letting the government shut my car down by remote. And some loser might find a way to hack into the "system" another thing I dont want to worry about. Obviously its way too soon to make that assumption! But there isnt much of an issue, the driver-less cars will be available to those who want them. I just don't want one. Just make life less interesting and reduces the control we have in our own life. And I think that no matter how accurate these google cars are, the first accident is going to set this whole idea WAY back.

When it comes to driving, there is a huge difference when it comes to time, car, location, environment ect. so opinions are going to be all over the place in the "who hates driving" "who likes driving" category.

My fear is it will become an on-call type service that google will operate. It is like google to hijack things, and use them to their own interest without asking. BUT if they do not separate the community, roads, and other aspects and actually integrate the self drive into standard vehicles, with the option to drive and to switch back to normal.... I think they might just make it big!

Yeah im thinking: If google does become the only road, only for those cars, they will make it into a "service" by them. And once thats over google has control of EVERYONE'S TRANSPORTATION! then they can start changing it just like they did with youtube.

Yeah! they need to start making lighter cars though. Terrafugia is what im talking about though, if you want to look it up. But like a plane it needs lot of space to lift off im guessing. Im sure they will come up with something less complex then a plane.
