Probably works OK in silicon valley where pedestrians and cyclists are banished from the roads and, if you want to exercise, you go jogging round the shopping mall. :o

I'd like to see how they propose to code the white van prediction algorithm. :D

But yes, over my dead body. Driving to work and back is the most interesting part of my day sometimes. :-X I'm bu66ered if they'll take that away. ;D
