I think it makes a lot of sense in urban or metropolis. But makes less sense in suburbs. What do you guys think? If Hyundai ever had it as an option for their cars, would anyone get it?

No, things on cars still fail even after they have been tested many times, especially electronics, with my luck I would stop at a stoplight and the person's car behind me would malfunction and crash into me. I just think until there is a way to make it %100 foolproof then it is a bad idea.

Only thing it would be good for is to get home while your drunk... otherwise I want to drive my car

IF it were done right I'd be for it as long as I could get manual control when I wanted it. By "done right" I mean integrated as the city is designed, so that's never going to happen in our lifetimes . . .

If proven reliable, I'm fine with it. We could quadruple the capacity of existing roadways by taking the idiots driving out of the equation.
I would be fine commuting while sleeping, etc. I can have fun driving myself around when I want to in another car.
