There was an old, now defunct, satire magazine called "CARtoons" that once did a piece on Earth's entire civilization being confined inside of large self-driving cars all barreling down the highway and going nowhere in particular. Everything was self-driving, the mall, restaurants, offices. It's hard to find any scans of the magazine online, but archive.org has a few (not that issue in particular) if you want to get a feel for them.

I just framed the start of that comic this weekend, to put up in the house and was thinking about that exact scenario this morning on my commute to work - odd to see both this article and this comment here.

Love the idea though - the problem with roadtripping in a 'camper' is that you waste the day travelling. I looked into staying in a camper in London for a bit when I was commuting there - but you have to go very stealth (if it isn't automatically driving around all night ;))

It's also similar to the Dr Who episode Gridlock, where future humans who live in their cars, and are constantly stuck in traffic outside major cities.

There is a podcast called "The Earth Collective" where an entire civilization is constantly moving. I guess they use big RV's there too. It is quite interesting.
