Um, you may want to start doing a bit of catch-up reading before making any
further categorical statements like the above since you appear to be making

probably unaware of current development in this area. Autonomous vehicles
are probably in the near future; this is what DARPA's Grand Challenge was
intended to accomplish:

Those aren't for road use. Remember what the D in DARPA stands for.
