[Jade · Rating 5 out of 5]

Short, sweet, and very appropriate for the current time. There are now many news stories of those self driving taxis such as Waymo where people have gotten stuck in them. This is rather realistic stuff here for a 1960's sci-fi short story, when other sci-fi stories of the time were more fantastical, like space travel and flying cars, etc.
It's public domain on Project Gutenberg if you want to read it.

"You get to thinking ... well, I can remember when people used to drive their own cars. Themselves. Steering and everything, except on the biggest highways. And everything got done with people. People made things, and cooked food, and grew plants. Everybody was busy all the time. It was better then."

This is a great short story, one of the ones that makes you feel nauseous from dread while reading it.

I felt really taken into the world of retro-futurism, and enjoyed/felt horrified by the implications for our current state of automation with self driving cars.

Available free from Gutenberg. Computer-controlled cars and roadways may be a one-way trip.

Very short and spooky

[Avianna · Rating 5 out of 5]

Short but powerful. Definitely worth a read. It would make for a really good indie short film, if it hasn’t been done so already.
