How many drivers would feel comfortable operating self-driving automobiles?

Answer: 39 percent

 

While nearly nine in 10 drivers say they are interested in driver-alert and driver-assist technologies in their vehicles, more than half said they still aren't comfortable with the idea of self-driving automobiles, according to a study commissioned by Ford Motor Co.

This study -- of 2,506 drivers age 18 and older -- found that approximately only 54 percent of those surveyed said they were interested in self-driving cars, and only 39 percent said they were "comfortable" operating one.
