What are you supposed to do with your hands? Fold them over your chest? I'd love to see the face of the first drunk who sees an empty bike buzz by. The owner could probably program it to come back with pizza. Impressive, but . . . why???

When these automated vehicles are allowed on British roads (or indeed any other countries roads) courier businesses and the like will want the benefits that motorcycles bring but obviously don't want to employ the staff that goes with. Absolutely pointless from a leisure point of view though.
