It's fun to speculate on what will happen when driverless cars become mainstream. Essentially, the question boils down to: "What would happen if every car owner in the world suddenly had a 24/7 personal driver?"

- 7 year old kids can now own and "drive" a car.

- Need a lift? Ask your dad/friend to send his car to pick you up.

- Forgot your laptop at home? Send your car back and ask your flatmate to put your laptop in the car.

- Leaving New York for some vacations in Miami? Take the plane and pick up your car whenever it arrives.

- Want to take a nap? Pull down the windows and windshield curtains.

- Traveling abroad for a few weeks and don't know what to do with your car? Set it to taxi mode and profit.
