Conan O’Brien Sketch Pokes Fun At Possible Hurdles For Autonomous Vehicles

Autonomous vehicles face many hurdles before they populate our streets — including wild cows and monster dogs.

At least, that’s what a video from “Conan” on Wednesday shows. Conan O’Brien aimed to prove that “all the kinks” had been worked out of Google Waymo’s Chrysler Pacificas, but as the not-so-realistic demo reveals, the autonomous revolution has a ways to go.

We’ve thought of plenty of questions that self-driving vehicles face going forward, but we never considered chronic implosion. Thankfully, a real-life autonomous Pacifica restores balance at the end of the clip.

Hopefully some of these issues get ironed out before Lyft’s autonomous mobile rooms change life as we know it.
