Comment on Will pilots-less airplanes happens first, or driver-less cars? Why?

Come to think of it we already had driverless vehicles, they were called horses. A trained horse could probably get you back home safely even if you hapoen pass out on it. But it still wasn’t common practice to take a nap on a horse back.

My grandma always told of a legendary man in my hometown, who would always take his horse to the local bar in the 1950s. When he got too drunk and fell asleep, the other patrons would carry him outside and sling him sideways over the horse, which would then trot off in to the night, supposedly delivering him safely at home.
I know that’s not very scientific evidence, but I always took it to be true. Maybe someone can concur.
