Also to mention the self-driving car issue - I have to agree, given the absolute shambles quality of driving you now see - and with the majority of drivers on the phone - that I would feel safer knowing that all the cars around me were programmed by experts rather than half-heartedly "driven" by distracted morons.
1) The majority of drivers aren't on the phone, nowhere near. Some are, certainly a lot more than should be (i.e. none), but not the majority.
2) Even the shortest spell of writing software for a living ought to dispel the notion that 'cars programmed by experts' are the magic panacea. I write code for money, and would consider myself quite good at it, but the notion of programming something like an autonomous vehicle would fill me with dread. There's a reason air traffic control uses the same shitty code written in the 80's - it's time-served and the bugs are well-known. I wouldn't fancy my chances on the M1 at 80mph with software that hadn't had at least ten years of daily hammering.
