COBURG (dpa-AFX) - Autonomous cars without a human behind the wheel are met with skepticism or even rejection by considerable sections of the population, according to a new survey.\nAccording to the survey, just under a third of the German population fundamentally rejects autonomous driving - regardless of whether the risk of accidents would decrease or increase.\nThe demoscopes surveyed the 4042 participants in January and February for a mobility study published annually by the insurance company.\nAccording to the survey, even assuming that the risk of accidents does not increase, only a minority of 47 percent would welcome autonomous driving.\nSimilarly, rejection is much greater among the older generation aged 55 and over than among younger cohorts under 55.
