    I think it’s a pretty good idea, at least for this period of transition towards self-driving vehicles. I think it’s useful information for other drivers to know that the vehicle is being controlled by a computer and not a real human.

      Agreed! I would welcome that bit of additional information about a car I’m sharing the road with.

      Kinda disagree, at least in the US the trogs are going to purposely mess with these vehicles as they already do but easier to target. But at least other countries don’t have lowbrow coal rollers.

        Every nation has its idiots, definitely not unique to the US
