Rethinking "Driverless Cars"

Would be interesting to know the typical duration of a remote intervention on a Cruise vehicle.

I read that Cruise vehicles are controlled remotely about 3% of the time. Does that mean a 10-minute intervention every 5 hours, or a 10-second intervention every 5 minutes?

"So there is a three-way distinction:

    Self-driving

    Driver-assist

    Remotely-assisted driving"

the cynics was right again, the "self driving" was a scam the whole time.

And its a real tragedy because there'd have been a market for "remote controlled cars," there was no need to taint the space with overblown claims other than "get that investor money first."

Personally, I do not want to own a vehicle that has the physical capability of remote / autonomous control of any aspect of its operation. It is a complete mystery to me why others do not have the same reservations.
