If you could buy a driver-less car today, you would pay an
additional $100,000 for all the sensors. This technology might make sense for
trains, but not for cars.
Driver-less cars are being tested and all the sensors are on
the car. That’s good news for taxpayers who won’t have to pay for putting
sensors on the roads and highways.

You can't buy a fully autonomous car yet. Such vehicles are
only allowed on the roads for testing purposes right now. And chances are, you
couldn't afford one yet anyway. Adding driver-less technology to a car would
have increased its cost by $70,000 to $100,000 in 2014.

If the technology proves out, it should be adopted for trains
to stop the train crash plague.
