One downside of self-driving cars – they can’t hear you if you honk your horn at them.
Hopefully they’ll at least be programmed to recognize single-finger salutes.

Maybe instead of “honking” your car will send them a text message.

“How’s My Drive? Call 1-800-CPU”
“If You Can Read This, You’re Too Cellulose”
“Baby On Message Board”
“www.JD?”
“Proud Grader of A [insert high school name] Honor Student”
“My CPU is a neural-net processor; a learning computer. But Skynet presets the switch to read-only when we’re sent out alone. “
Supposedly, they are programmed to minimize deaths in an inevitable crash situation. In other words, 2 pedestrians jump out in front of you, and the car has to decide whether to hit and kill them, crash into the tree and kill you, or crash into oncoming traffic and kill you and another driver. So it chooses the tree.
Of course, I’d plow over the pedestrians. They’re the ones doing something stupid enough to warrant death.
