How do people in eight countries feel about self-driving cars, buses, trains and metros?

When this distinction is drawn, we see 8-11pt increases in preference for self-driving cars in each country, representing between 22% and 34% opting this way.

Aside from self-driving cars, our survey also examined attitudes to self-driving public transport, namely buses, trains and metro trains.

With the exception of Poland, these figures are substantially higher than comfort levels for self-driving cars and buses.

France proves the exception, where the 57% who are comfortable riding on a self-driving metro is notably higher than the 46% who say so of self-driving trains.

That being the case, we followed up this generic question on comfort riding self-driving buses, trains and metros with one that stipulated such staff members would be on board.
