Self-driving cars

Now that my fellow Eastern Penn Advanced Toastmasters Club members have read the pre-speech articles and heard the presentation, it is time to solicit your input.

I would like to know if you embrace or are skeptical about this new technology.  Would you prefer a car that prioritizes your protection or that of pedestrians in the even that the protection of one or the other must be chosen by the car?  Is government regulatory involvement in this welcomed by you or would you prefer some alternate means of assuring safety?  Chime in!
