Results Nearly half of those surveyed prefer to be the ‘pilot’ in a self-driving vehicle, showing Canadians understand the role they play when the tech becomes available. However, 36 per cent of those polled said they weren’t comfortable with any of the self-driving scenarios identified by CarGurus’ survey, showing there is still some distance to make up for AV adoption. Those polled showed plenty of concerns about self-driving technology, with nearly half of respondents believing that cars equipped with such a feature will be very expensive. Just 44 per cent responded they’re not comfortable relying on these features for safety, while 41 per cent said they’re worried about who is responsible when something goes wrong. Just a quarter believe that the technology isn’t ready yet, which is wild considering that there are no self-driving vehicles available, and just a select few vehicles that can operate without your hands on the wheel.
