The end of driving culture

# The End of Driving Culture Autonomous vehicles will eventually eliminate the distinctive driving habits and personalities we associate with different cities and regions—New York's aggressive style, California's freeway patience, Cairo's chaotic honking conversations. Companies like Waymo are building self-driving cars that could replace human drivers entirely, meaning the unique car cultures that define how people in different places actually drive will simply disappear. Instead of drivers adapting to their cities, software will standardize how everyone gets around.
