[QUOTE="HEFFERNAN, post: 1138997, member: 11315"] The mass-produced automobile was perfected in 1914 by Henry Ford 99 years later, Robots have done most of the producing but driving a vehicle has stayed unchanged. It would take a mass involvement of technology to have fleets of computer-driven vehicles. The problem would be all vehicles would have to be on the same grid, one car off the grid not following rules could cause chaos I can see the USPS using some technology akin to newer garbage and recycling bin pickup Maybe an arm comes out the side of a truck and opens the mailbox door and shoots in your mail. UPS delivers envelope letters to 150 lb "widowmakers". I can't see a delivery system that would ever work with those parameters. I do remember watching IRobot with Wil Smith and seeing a robot FEDEX driver making a delivery. LOL So if it can be thought up, anything is possible [/QUOTE]
