Self-driving cars will be the norm by 2025 at the latest. Take it to the bank.
There's just too much working for it right now.

It will be far cheaper to subscribe to an autonomous car service than to own your own vehicle.

Self-driving cars will save countless lives and cut the number of injuries hospitals see by a huge factor.

Self-driving cars will eliminate the traffic jam. Cities with consistent traffic snarls will see them magically disappear.

The cost to ship goods over land will be reduced by over 25% once the need to pay a driver is factored out.

It's happening, and it will be a societal revolution on the order of the smartphone.

It's crazy to see how frequently massive shifts are happening in our world. Seems these big changes are coming faster, too. Next up: full automation of the workforce. No job is safe.
