    I prefer 'instrument of Darwinian forces' myself.

    I also think its art is better than the flying car CGI photoshop job.

    Better looks, but how is the population going to learn to not walk and use smart phones at the same time.

    The combination of pedestrians using smartphones/listening to iPods and cars becoming increasingly quieter thanks to hybrid/EV is troubling indeed.

    Not sure if SDCs will improve the situation.

    Those appear to be just mapping and street view vehicles.

    I think Google's SDC is a Prius.
