This is classic “I’m special”ism and it’s all an illusion. You are human, you make mistakes, you get tired, you overestimate your capabilities and your reaction times are much much slower than a computer.

There is nothing special about you that makes you more able to drive cars than anyone else and especially compared to a computer. In a few years it will considered crazy and unsafe to drive your own car and comments like this will be chuckled at.

In a few years? Surely you jest. Self-driving tech is nowhere near being able to outperform all human drivers, which is what would be required for your statement to make sense.
