Autonomous cars are safer, Tesla CEO says

Tesla CEO Elon Musk believes that driving an automobile will become illegal once autonomous vehicles prove that they're safer and more reliable than humans. As a matter of fact, the company is actively looking for skilled engineers to accelerate the development of autonomous driving technology. 

“In the distant future, I think people may outlaw driving cars because it’s too dangerous,” Musk said at a conference held by graphics chipmaker Nvidia Corp. “You can’t have a person driving a two-ton death machine.” 

Musk later clarified his remarks on Twitter: “To be clear, Tesla is strongly in favor of people being allowed to drive their cars and always will be,” he wrote.
