Re: adnohr, a moving vehicle with no driver can easily go wrong.

All it takes is for the GPS to be off-kilter or a mechanical failure and these are just a few of the things that can go wrong.

It would have been nice if they operated like trams used to with an overhead cable

Re:

I can just see it all now.  I go to the door to get the pizza and the Robot goes totally insane and starts chasing me around the neighborhood.  I'm hiding in the neighbor's bushes and watching as he goes down the street looking for me.  I wonder who you'd call at this point?

I wouldn't be at ease if in one, but what would the danger be for delivery?

Re: I'm a bit leery of those vehicles, but there is a case to be made for

I don't think that I would choose to ride in one of them.

Re: Re: Goldiec, I am whole heartedly not a fan of them. They are dangerous.

Sassy, I totally agree!  It's too dangerous!

I do believe that there needs to be a way to deliver meals to people who can no longer drive, but I just do not think that this is the answer. There are too many variables than can go horribly wrong.

Good Afternoon

Sassy, I haven't made up my mind how I feel about these driver-less cars.  It's going to take me some time to get used to all of this.  Robots delivering pizza to the front door?  I have to think about this.

I'm a bit leery of those vehicles, but there is a case to be made for

seniors who are no longer allowed to drive themselves to have such transportation for local shopping or medical appointments.
