Self-driving cars aren't a technological problem.

We have had self-driving trains and self-flying planes for decades. Despite this, train operators and airplane pilots aren't going away, and, if anything, are becoming even more important professions.

That's because they're in the "providing security" business, not in the "operating machinery" business. We pay pilots to take responsibility so passengers feel safe.

It's exactly the same for cars and trucks. The self-driving car racket is a scam, because they're not solving the actual problem society wants solved.
