Steveha7[/url]":2pnyda37]Is there really a demand for a driverless car? Driving is the fun part and is why I got a license. This may help handicapped people and if kids can ride in them without an adult. Other than that, I don't see much demand.

Nothing fun about a commute or I would say any fun wears thin after the first 1000 times. I would gladly pay $20K extra for a self driving car today even if it was limited to only self driving on the highway (user took over at on/off ramps).
I wouldn't go $20k extra for an autonomous car, but semiautonomy and a $30k pricetag is why the Tesla 3 is tempting.

I can't readily afford a second car, though, so I won't buy one. :|
Why would anyone buy a fully autonomous car?!?

They would be in a fleet and dispatched as needed.
Why would I want a fleet car shared with random joes? Rentals are bad enough, and they get cleaned after every use. A "just in time fleet" would have cars going directly from one user to the next, complete with puddles of vomit or whatever other nastiness.

I'd rather have my own vehicle who's condition I can guarantee.

How long have you worked for Google?
