00:00The idea of getting into a driverless car fills me with absolute horror.
00:07I certainly couldn't get in one.
00:10It's alright saying that they'll be driverless,
00:13but like people have said, what will happen to all the jobs then,
00:18for all the taxi drivers?
00:21I think it'll cause more chaos on the roads,
00:23because already there's enough accidents now, I think.
00:26If there isn't a driver, people are going to mess around in it
00:29and there's not going to be anyone watching them.
00:32I think a lot of us would want to try it with our friends.
00:35It would be cool, that's what we would think.
00:37What do you think, Gilbert?
00:38I feel bad for the taxi driver, really, because they're losing their job.
00:42I can't imagine anybody getting in a driverless car.
00:45How safe would you feel?
00:48Who's in control?
00:51We have robots, the co-op shop near us has robots,
00:55things that deliver you shopping.
00:57We don't understand it, but we need people.
