At first I thought this was the dumbest thing ever. I'd find myself getting more and more po'ed about it as I read it in every car rag and automotive/business site.

Then I thought about it a little bit more:

There's a lot of bad drivers out there. Or think about the # of dumb-asses texting and driving or driving stoned/drunk? Or the # of 83 year olds who don't have their faculties anymore? Or 16 year olds who have their licenses but really arent ready to drive yet?

If this technology can alleviate some of those dangers, and still allow me to drive and have fun doing so? I think thats a step in the right direction.

But I do also see a day when the differentiation between brands is going to be more difficult with this technology. And that is what would scare me if I worked in that industry.

Being driven by a chevy or a bmw? its still being driven by something else vs experiencing it yourself.
