Seems like before we get to fully autonomous cars, the milestone that technology will conquer before are cars that would be able to find their own parking space. As a driver, all you will need to do is pull up to a parking garage, get out of your vehicle, and leave it to find a parking spot by itself. When you need to retrieve your car, simply summon it back and it will already be waiting for you at a specially designated area in front of the parking garage. Those days of aimlessly circling around for a parking spot and having to fight tooth a nail with other irate shoppers for that one measly spot between two full size SUVs are coming to a close. Imagine never having to find a parking space again.
We will also see the current adaptive cruise control upgraded to another nifty feature that’s self-steering. The car will be able to take command during traffic, making it a relief for drivers who have to spend hours in stop-and-go traffic. This would minimize collisions and further cut down traffic phenomenally. Everyone has sat through the dread and complete boredom of some of the worst traffic, moving at a snail’s pace and watching the sky turn dark. All cars should have the capability of relieving the worst part of traffic and help eliminate accidents.
