I mean, God, yeah, 100%.

That totally makes sense.

And equally, I worry about the tiredness of my drivers when I get into the vehicle sometimes, right?

It becomes very obvious to me that I don't know what taco graph this guy is using, but he looks tired, right?

And so those things...

We used to make the analogy like, you know, where you pick the type of Uber you want to collect you, an XL or whatever.

Also, it'd be interesting to test, would you like the safest vehicle?

Would you pay a premium for a safer ride?

And it'd be, you know, if you're bringing your kids or, you know, a lady at night coming home, I think you'd pay that premium premium.

And I think we will pay it in our, in our cars as well.

And legislation is going to bring it in anyway.

Yeah, exactly.

Or the other side is people on the road not having to worry about that somebody on the road is over the limit.

Like my son is out cycling right now.

The stress of a 13-year-old out just going to the lake for a swim or going to the field for a pucker round.

That stress is awful because of the way people drive.

So that's kind of the piece I...

find most interesting here and I think it's the piece you can't really push back on because once you can prove that and that's what's actually after happening in certain domains we've proven that the sensors are better you know in emergency situations than the human driver it becomes legislation and it's just going to keep happening and so we're actually you know we've moved a huge amount people don't realize it but we've gone from level zero a couple of years ago to level two now it's basically mandated and then there's more bits of level two

to get us towards level three, when you get to level three, you'll stop caring.

And I think that's the big one.
