        I’m almost 50, but I remember when I was a kid, my mom told me that by the time I turned 16, cars would drive themselves. Just tell it where to go and it would do it.

        That timeline would have been the early 90s. Oops.

        After driving a modern car with all of the current safety features, I’ve come to the conclusion that self-driving cars were even farther away than I thought. It frequently misinterprets the situation and screeches its irritating alarm noise.
