On: Uber is doomed

    > my car drives 95% of my commute.

In the context of the taxi market, "self driving" means 100%. If I call for a self-driving cab, it needs to reach me on its own.

Getting to 100% looks like it's going to be pretty hard, despite the endless stream of articles insinuating otherwise. A car that drives into oncoming traffic 1% of the time isn't good enough.

Well, if it safely gets wedged or parked 1 in 1000 of the time it might be good enough. Too late for Uber though.
