Dr. Mario Herger has been living in Silicon Valley for many years. A place where mischief clenched over the German automotive industry brews together. Herger takes us on an exciting journey of discovery through the latest technological developments. What he describes would have gone through a few years ago as science fiction.

But his exciting analysis shows that the last driver newcomer is probably already born. For in the age of autonomously driving and networked vehicles, the human factor will only unnecessarily endanger safety on the roads.

What the numerous start-ups in sunny California are developing is nothing but the end of the classic car as we know it. And with it the end of an entire industry. The Germans are emotionally attached to that.

The fascinating descriptions by Mario Herger offer ample opportunity for this.
