I don't own a car and I feel so incredibly privileged. Whatever shit they do with cars, I just don't care. And I don't need to pay for it.

He wasn't able to travel far enough to get to that part.

don't worry
In the future, we won't drive cars anymore.

I absolutely love tech shit and touchscreens
I don't, because i know the mess behind it.

And even if he did she's into real cars -
Really depends on where. Computer with touch? Nope. Car? Nope. Phone? Both please. Tablet? Yes. Any kitchens appliance? Hell no.

1990-2020 I can really see.
2050 not so much. But it will be less cars as poorer people, or people who only buy dumb cars will be left out. The good old mechanic things that last forever with good care are over. Now good luck to get a 7000,- cockpit replacement for your 15yrs old electric vehicle. Oh right, who cares, batteries are already borked. -

The windshield may be bug-free, but the car isn't.

The tradeoff is safety though. Surviving a crash without death or major injuries is much more likely in modern cars. ESP systems also decrease the likelihood of crashing in the first place.

Oh totally. I don’t doubt increased survivability with all the additional safety features in modern cars compared to old ones.
However, all the other little stuff that has nothing to do with safely delivering passengers have made them demonstrably more distracting, most notably the touch screen. Me, personally, I’d prefer to avoid the crash entirely.
You can take a car from the early 2000’s, add the extra airbags and crumple zone tech that we’ve developed over the years, and you’d have a much safer car than what they’re putting out now.
