    It's a non binding resolution. Aspirational, but who knows where it leads?

    I'm more worried about an eventual ban on self-driven cars. I doubt I'll live to see it. But maybe I will. In the link below (good read if you have some time) the writer suggest self-driven cars will be kept by hobbyists like us for show and designated circuits, but illegal for use on public roads. Kind of like show horses. She also makes the case that many self-driven cars are not in-fact being driven at all, as we all know. My daily driver is a bicycle. Every day, all day long, I look into cars and see someone doing something other than driving. Hell, if given a vote, I might support making self-driving cars illegal, because it's getting nuts out there.
