A very interesting article on the future of transportation from Mother Jones that makes some interesting points about some trends at the
intersection of transportation and technology, which also relate to
cycling because we cyclists share the road with cars. While the thought of driverless cars can be
initially alarming, consider that the systems responsible could detect cyclists
and pedestrians at a much higher rate than human drivers, and also wouldn’t be
subject to the emotional responses that humans are, for example, giving cyclists
the finger while buzzing them unnecessarily closely.
