Everyone keeps saying no in this thread, but I trust that it will be a better driver than my 80 year old grandpa who can't see 10 feet busy still manages to retain their drivers license.
Except that in this case, one might prevent/reduce the other. There is a certain amount of mutual exclusivity here. We can't take drivers licenses away from old people, but we might be able to get them in an autonomous car.
