    Distrust of the technology is at 75 percent among americans, and expected to grow as more and more accidents happen. The majority speaks, and they will speak loudly until its banned.

    I don't think it's that high, that or there's a lot of those who have complete faith in technology who do nothing but make noise about it all day long.

    Watching the new Cadillac ad , I am surprised their lawyers let them put out that ad . Shows the driver going down the road , let go of the steering wheel , lean back , and fold his arms . How many remember the rv maker who got sued after a buyer wrecked with the cruise on?Left the seat to get coffee. Stated the dealer had said it was like autopilot.
