I wonder what the true cost of maintaining these beasties will be, as sensor failure rate will be an interesting thing to track.
All very interesting

Andrew,
Not sure if you or many have noticed that the ONLY way forward is to buy new, were being programmed to buy new, old is bad, we MUST keep the factory's going otherwise the GDP falls (in that country as we seem to be happy to let others make things for us), unemployment goes up, therefore you MUST buy that new updated automated car, (or knock down that old house for a new one), you must not maintain anything, get a new one and to hell with the planet......
So........ I don't see maintenance or sensor life being an issue as you'll probably find legislation to remove anything over 2 years old appearing to prevent (as if) loss of life from those horrible old autopilot cars.
