I am far from sold on driverless cars. I think we'll get there eventually but I doubt I'll be comfortable giving up control in my lifetime. However, I think this article is not fair in this instance. Here's a direct quote about the circumstances of the accident from the article you linked to:

"It was a place one would expect to find deserted on a Sunday night, and not even the kind of environment that normally attracts homeless people. Nevertheless, Elaine Herzberg was there and 'she came from the shadows right into the roadway,...'

It sounds to me that she likely would have been struck regardless of who was driving. Driverless cars are theoretically safer because they avoid human error. But in this case, the accident sounds unavoidable.

But why are these stocks your favorite? Can you elaborate on why you chose $PCAR $AEP and $ETN?

Good point.

Yes, I'd also like to see more by @[Norman Roberts](user:35984).

Very insightful

I hate to break this to you, but from what I understand it was essentially a scam. No products ever shipped. Not sure if it was intentional or just that the company went under before shipping. Best course of action for you is to dispute the charge with your credit card company.

This is reassuring.

Interesting perspective Moon. @[Joe Arns](user:61421), what's your take?

You seem to be quite the expert! What's your background? I'm very impressed.

This is reassuring, thanks.
