It will be great for drunks as well. Go out and party hard. Climb in the back seat and tell the car to take you home.

100% agreed. My parents are toeing the edge of driving restriction. They won't take the train (no pets) so the only option visiting us is for me to drive up to get them from Santa Barbara and return them a couple days later. Flying $$$ is out of the question.
A driverless car that can be tasked electronically and arrive within ~ 10 minutes would be incredibly useful. That said I'm an old guy who wants the option to row the gears manually and have what's left of my hair blow with the window down as I take that 35 mph turn at 65
