The Los Angeles Times reports that while most people would not buy a self driving car, experience with driver assist features like automatic braking and lane keeping boosts openness. Only 18 percent have tried such tech and 49 percent of them feel confident in driverless cars, with 28 percent of first time users confident. Experts say the shift is quick but corner cases remain a hurdle and costs could rise by hundreds of dollars beyond the $2,600 average willingness to pay.
