Excuse me I ment to say: To heck with scenic travel, Just Give me a Plug in rout planning capability for an automated vehicle, or even better an automated Cab! I would be satisfied with being able to go to the grocery store or out to a restaurant for a nice evening without the amount of planning, stress, and anxiety which that currently incurs.

Yes that was one of the most fun things that I have done. I thank every one and every thing and every version of God or what ever that I am still alive and uninjured from that. I do think that we will see some version of an automated car before most of us die, but I don't know how soon they will be on the road. My dream is to be able to take my GPS system, create a route with stops in it, and plug the info into my car and settle in for a Road trip. Can you imagine how much fun we could have creating scenic trips for the blind and sharing them with each other? Gerry
