1. How should the government outlaw human driving—when the safety record of driverless cars is better than human drivers? Or twice as safe? Does utilitarianism move this date sooner or later? Does the categorical imperative suggest moving this date sooner or later?

2. How should the transition take place? Should all roads be declared driverless after a specific date or just highways first? Or should all vehicles sold after a certain date be driverless?

3. There are also ethical considerations about the programming of the automated drivers. For example, if a pedestrian walks in front of your vehicle, how violently should you automated driver avoid making contact? Should it be programmed to never make contact even if this threatens the lives of the occupants of the car? Does using utilitarianism or the categorial imperative for the basis of the programming give the pedestrian a better chance of surviving?

4. When do you expect to fly in an airliner without pilots on board? Specify a year. Assume each airline will have pilots flying the airplanes remotely supported by on-board automation.
