What I love about the idea of driverless cars is how it expands the usability of electric cars. I live in a multifamily dwelling, as do many people. I can't charge a car at home right now. But if a driverless car could drive off to charge itself and return when I summon it, that's resolved. The same is true of visiting a distant city. I no longer need to worry about charger access at my destination as long as my car can drive itself to a location miles away.
