    after driving > 1,000 miles on AP1 ... there have been a few times driving AP2 where yes - in comparison, the weaving was that of a DWI driver. Sure keeps one on their toes.

    Wow. He certainly put the "arse" into "Ars Technica".

    Once cars are properly automated, being able to get home drunk without having to find a taxi is definitely an appealing idea.

    But this man doesn't seem to understand the "properly" part of that.
