Is Society Ready For Driverless Cars?

Driverless cars will affect us all profoundly. They will save many lives, destroy many livelihoods and change our behaviour in unexpected ways. What are the barriers to achieving the benefits of this new technology and how can they be overcome? What new risks will be created? When will the technology be mature and will society be ready?
