why would you control your car outside of it when you can just sit inside and drive it :pokerface:

Would probably drive better than the majority of human Range Rover owners.

Since most of them are on their phones while driving anyway :lawl:

This is just a terrible idea.

Someone is going to figure out how to disable that 4mph limit...

I know, right!

Some people don't find driving "fun". Most of them find it as a chores instead :rukidding:

Wait, someone remind me why a 180 degree multi-point turn needs to be automated?? Are they implying it to be difficult? Especially in a car like that with multiple cameras and sensors already??

:seriously:

It'd be awesome for those extra tight spots. Especially when you got kids in tow, you can let everyone out then get the car to park itself. Just don't complain about door dings. :pokerface:

Wonder how much R&D was put into this dumb idea. Says a lot about their cars.

Can only imagine the owner getting run over while reversing using iPhone....

When 4x4ing and going over a section that has the potential to roll your vehicle and you don't want to be inside?

The trend towards full autonomous cars will be the death of us, case in point...

E.D.C.5 06-18-2015 09:43 PM
this is not going to end well in Richmond, I can already imagine....:facepalm:

Indy 06-19-2015 08:56 AM
so wait...

it's illegal to drive and hold my phone, but is it illegal to drive using my phone from the outside?

But to legally let everyone get out, you'd need to park first...
