You know how excited people get when they see the GoogleMaps car out and about? Well, I would be super excited if I could ride in one!
Transportation is difficult for many people with disabilities. In addition to physical conditions making it impossible for some to drive (i.e., blindness), others lack the financial resources to modify vehicles or pay a chauffeur. My back hurts too much to entrust it to careless paratransit drivers, and even when I could ride paratransit, it often took two hours to travel fourteen miles.
I see driverless cars as the solution to many of these difficulties. The ease of rolling in, typing in an address, and going is awe-inspiring. It would mean freedom. I could meet friends for drinks, see the doctor regularly, and actually go grocery shopping.
Go technology!
