Those things would not even need drivers. It can't change direction anyway or it'd crash. Wonder why they let a human sit into them anyway...

That's just a rocket with wheels. Has nothing to do with a car.

This however...

Now they just need to actually get a full construction up and running and the world will be a better place :)
