Do we really need to drive anymore?

Via Wired magazine, Audi passes another milestone on the road to driverless cars. All of the objections seem to be falling by the wayside. Soon, a driverless system will be safer than conventional cars, and at that point we will have to ask whether we want to continue to kill and maim people for the illusion of control that driving gives us. Lots of folks would rather text or put on make-up, anyway.
