And what would be the fun of an autonomous motorcycle?? There's no way I'd get a motorcycle that's going to do the driving for me. Until I moved north (where they have snow!) I put more miles on my motorcycle than I put on my car.

I do agree that whoever does the traffic flow in some of the smaller towns (like Temecula, CA!) don't have a clue.
