Illustrated | GettyimagesAccording to a new survey by AAA, close to 70 percent of Americans are afraid of fully self-driving cars, Axios reports.\nThe increase, according to the findings, is largely due to the public misunderstanding of self-driving technology and \"recent headline-grabbing incidents\" regarding self and assisted-driving technology.\n\"The perils of lacking an intuition for state of mind are already evident,\" in self-driving technology, Anthony continued.\nFor now, fully self-driving cars are not possible.\n\"If we get ahead of it, we could design more efficient autonomous vehicles that have a smaller carbon footprint from the start.\"
