About This Quiz
Science fiction has been telling us for decades now that the future will be automated. Robot servants, artificial intelligence, and self-driving cars are going to be around every single corner, right?

Like it or not, self-driving cars are going to be a thing. The question is, are they going to be your thing? Let's find out!
