I’m a driving instructor and I believe automated roads would be a godsend. I’d actually be happy the day I don’t have to do my job, not because I hate it - I actually love my job - but because automated roads would be so much safer overall.

I guess that’s fair. Machines would be much less accident prone than humans, but you can’t automate everything on the road (e.g. people, bikes, non-automated vehicles). People are going to have to be able to know how to get out of situations manually. What about emergencies where you have to do something that the automated roads aren’t programmed for?
