Abstract
Public road automation has been a phrase on everybody’s lips in the automotive world for more than a decade, but the challenges are misjudged, and the question is: Has public road automation only been a playground for technical nerds rather than addressing real-world pain points? Or have the real-world problems been a subterfuge for playing around with technology? For sure, increased traffic safety is something that needs to be further addressed, but will automation really be the solution to a reduction in fatalities? In December 2015, Elon Musk said that Tesla cars will drive themselves within two years <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref1" xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">[1]</xref> , and still there is no self-driving Tesla car. Since then, Elon has repeated this mantra every now and then. Tesla’s Full Self-Driving feature has been much debated lately because of safety flaws.
