Intelligent Automobiles: Keep Your Hands on the Wheel?

Would having a car that drives for you ruin the pleasure of taking a drive? Or would you prefer that your car drive for you? If you're a commuter, you could utilize the time spent driving to work on something else. If you're a Los Angeles resident like me, you'd definitely want a self-driving car -- unless you're crazy. I'm all about driving on a country back road, but who wants to spend an hour and a half just trying to get across this city?
