What happens when machines take the wheel literally and quietly begin redesigning our streets, cities, and choices? This book is not about how self-driving cars work. It s about what happens after they do. As autonomous vehicles and society move toward a future few are fully prepared for, this provocative exploration reveals the unseen consequences of giving up control. From the ethics of self-driving cars to the subtle behavioral shifts that follow algorithmic decision-making, readers are invited to confront questions that most headlines ignore: Who programs our mobility? What do we lose when we no longer steer ourselves? And how is power being redefined on the road and beyond? Blending systems thinking, psychology, and urban foresight, this book is essential reading for tech skeptics, curious citizens, and anyone concerned with the urban impact of AVs. Whether you re a policymaker, designer, educator, or engaged reader of tech culture, you ll gain frameworks for understanding: How the future of transportation 2025 and beyond is being shaped behind the scenes Why driverless car surveillance could quietly become the new norm How AI and personal agency intersect in everyday decisions The risks of behavioral drift, over-optimization, and eroded public space What humane, human-centered autonomy could look like and how to demand it If you ve ever wondered who controls autonomous cars or how cities might change in the age of seamless automation, this is your map, flashlight, and ethical compass. In a world rushing to embrace the driverless future, this book challenges you to slow down and think deeply before the road ahead is coded for you.
