...and it's all over by 31:00.

Thanks. It's book-ended by mentions of the Edison2. Mostly it's about the social implications of autonomous cars. It's interesting and thought-provoking.

At one point he mentions that 'surge pricing' will affect your commute to work which will lead to move flexible working hours, which will mean fewer new lanes on the freeway needed and&.

Personally, I think he should sell the in-hub suspension fitted to the 1937 Ford front axle (one-year only tube axle) through Summit Racing. Or Local Motors.

Also: he points to three inflection points in the evolution of the automobile; the Model T Ford, the 1939 VW Beetle and the 1959 Morris Mini.
