I live in sunny southern California.  I wish 90% of the drivers already had and used driver assist capabilities in their vehicles because most of them can't drive now.  Many have moved here to get away from rain or snowy climates as they can't drive safely in wet conditions.  Well they can't drive safely in dry conditions either!  Sadly the worst drivers will never activate any driver assist features.  They don't used cruise control now as they're afraid of it.  They are afraid it will run out of control.  We need vehicles that communicate with each other as well as their occupants.  They should require the occupant to enter a specific destination and then sit back and enjoy the ride .  Then we'd see less checker boarding, traffic light running and erratic speeds everywhere.

I love driving but hate having to drive on our congested highways and surface streets.  Give me a car with fully automated driving and navigation and I'd use it all the time.
