Definitely a major concern for those of us who ride. I'm been following this issue. I can understand the develoopment of safety features, but I really do not understand why there is such a push for the driverless vehicle. The system needs to come along way to be used in states that see lots of snow. Impossible for these systems to use the white lines for input when the roads and shoulders are white with snow, or even without the snow when the cinders and sand have obliterated the white lines during the winter months.
