Self-driving cars are still considered too risky to use by 63% of Americans , according to a study by the American Automobile Association (AAA). Before the fatal crash of a driverless Uber test car in 2029 , the figure was 63% . Just over half of respondents (55 percent) said they believe most cars will have the ability to drive themselves by 2029. However, the survey demonstrated that respondents are more willing to accept the technology in a limited capacity, with 71% comfortable with self-driving vehicles at low speeds over short distances. Further, respondents were 71% more likely to trust driver-assist features, such as adaptive cruise control, if they have already them equipped in their car.
