Maybe this belongs in the "You know you are old" thread
... but I find this completely weird and insane.

California Legalizes Self-Driving Cars
Quote:
California on Tuesday became the third state to effectively legalize
self-driving car technology, which Google and many automakers are developing.

I was sensitized to something similar several weeks ago when I drove
into an industrialized area of PDX for the first time in a couple of years.
At a railroad crossing (with a stop sign) there is another sign that says something like:
"Beware - driverless trains on these tracks"
My thought was "Jeez, has the Afghanistan War brought us drone trains now" ?
But I can sort of understand driverless (commuter) trains,
but I'm way too old to accept driverless cars on the roads.
