You don’t think autonomous driving tech has improved? Mercedes has a vehicle that takes full responsibility if an accident happens. It’s coming

Mercedes new car is not autonomous at all. Under certain conditions the driver may remove their hands and feet from controlling the car. It’s called “level 3”, and is basically only able to be used on freeways.

The technology isn’t there and doesn’t work. If it did, we’d have car rolling around that have no one inside of them.

There has been minimal growth in the past half decade.

So they do have level 3? Which is very autonomous. So level 4 and 5 are coming.

Level 3 is not autonomous. You sound like you have no idea what you’re talking about. Have a nice life.

You're not responding to a single point in the OP's post.
 
Level 3 is not autonomous, it's basically highway driver assist.
 
The technology does not work and the people in this sub who were saying a decade ago that self-driving cars would rule the streets by 2020 were wrong.
