I can see autopilot vehicles in the left-lane-only very very soon, and I can see how they would travel super fast in congested traffic because they would be computer controlled... and I could also see idiots trying to squeeze into that left lane and causing accidents too.

I feel like this might happen within my lifetime, and end up at the point where in big cities your vehicle can only be on the freeway if it's autopilot equipped.

Sorry, off topic a little, but this article got me thinking....
