Self-driving vehicles could do almost anything within the laws of physics and the human-generated software that controls them. You could have fully autonomous, highly optimized behavior of every vehicle on the road, cooperatively and adaptively updated. It might even allow for higher-speed operation in certain areas. Two big dangers are, 1) mixing autonomous vehicles with unpredictably-operated vehicles driven by humans; and 2) failure of vehicle sensors and/or software to recognize and correctly interpret objects and scenarios they haven't trained for.

It would also be possible to aggregate many vehicles into a drafting chain that would make NASCAR drivers envious, allowing somewhat more efficiency at higher speed.


I think
slow and steady
and only at night
will be the first wave.
