Sending your kid to college doesn't mean shit. Some of these kids come out owing 100k plus with a useless degree. You should of said: Send your kids to college and pick a degree that's actually worth something. What many of these colleges do to their students is criminal IMO.
And I agree about human based labor. But don't you think it's going to be a problem when all this tech pushes people out of work? Not everyone is cut out for an advanced degree.

I do agree, it is criminal but whose fault is it really? If someone wants to get a degree in Theater or Art or some other bullshit major because "its what they like to do" then that is on the student. They have to fully know that there very limited jobs in those career fields and the chance at making a living in that field is slim to none.

Hey, some people would rather serve coffee for the rest of their lives instead of doing a job that requires work!

I do not think most people that are already driving adults are going to jump on this, but the next generation that is used to being plugged in while riding around in a car will find it convenient to get some screen time while their car or the car service takes them places.

I charge 75 per hour and if I need help it's another 50 per hour that I pay him. You don't need a degree to earn big money.

What I want to know is who gets the tickets? How will police departments survive with a massive drop in precious traffic violation revenue?

I agree, but not all 18,19 year old kids are smart enough to know what a HUGE life decision they are making. Some are, but many are not.

I give them no pity. I can only laugh when I see people I went to college with complaining about their student debt or working some low level job. I graduated with 50k in student loans, got in with a solid company and have worked my way through the corporate ladder to a senior level position. Paid off over 30k in 2.5 years. The only person who can improve your situation is yourself. **** 'em.

Oh we can figure something out. I would imagine the first several generations of self driving cars will require a person paying attention ready to take over, I bet municipalities would make tons of sleeping drivers and such. Leaves them plenty of time to figure out some way to squeeze money out.
