I dream of the time when I go on a road trip with a family and don’t have to drive. No, train, etc is not an option for too many reasons to list here

You can effectively do this today with high-end SAE L1.5 systems like Cadillac Super Cruise and Volvo Pilot Assist.

We really are on the cusp of L2 highway autonomy, and will get there in 2020 as originally envisioned. This WSJ article is insufficiently researched.

You can already hire a human driver.
