Car companies are planning to put driverless cars on the road by 2020, and the government is in the process of making that legal. Americans themselves are a little less ready, according to survey data released today by Pew Research Center.
About two-thirds of U.S. adults expect most cars to be driverless within the next half century (only 8 percent think they will never happen). At the same time, more than half of Americans — 56 percent — say they would not ride in a driverless car if given the opportunity.
