LET DREAM

Let Dream for a Moment...

Bravo! Perfecto! Cool! The future is right here in front of us. Let dreams for a moment. Just for a moment of having this car. 

Let dream a little bit when it comes to this car. Possessing the car. Being inside and feel it. Driving it or let being driven by it at any time. Think about everything you and I can dream off with this nice high tech Mercedes F015. 

In their own words; " The future of the automobile belongs to the autonomous driving. Mercedes-Benz presents a powerful visualization of the technology in the F015 Luxury in motion."

It means new technology, new field of opportunity in term of jobs and all accessories. Something good to know and to be ready for but....

What about the jobs of professional drivers? Do they keep it with this kind of car around? Sure not. Guys it is time to master another skill. I am not kidding.

Same thing for Uber driver or yellow cabs. Don't you think? I am just asking simple questions here. What new technology means for the old industry?

Listen! How in the world couple months from now, an Uber driver can survive in the industry with a competition like this? When you can simply use your smartphone to call a car that could drive you straight home with comfort and precision.

As a traditional driver, I better find a new job soon, even if I like this car. 

Enjoy the ride...Like a baby.
