Also Google about Google glasses, yeah neat technology, but it made people look like an idiot to others.

Keep in mind, getting people from one place to another has been solved a long time ago. Mass Transit and walking. I spent time in places with good mass transit systems and it works well. The only issue which does not work for people in the US you have to travel on the Mass Transits schedule not your own. But with Mass Transit you will get where you expect when you expect to and most likely always alive.

There is a large group of people who will not give up the wheel and it is for reason which has nothing to do with solving an interest technical problem.
Good points. +1 to you
