see a "Train" of driverless cars mimicking as they progress on their

But such cars would act independently and would not gain anything by
being linked into a virtual train
They will save on space required between them when for the portion of
those independent journeys that they are all going in the same
direction for a distance and each individual car is closer than would
be safe with manualy driven ones , no thinking time from human drivers
though it could well seem strange to present drivers who on the whole
get uncomfortable when people Tailgate.
All fine until an artic crosses the central reservation and you discover
you need the same stopping space as you did with a driver.
They are not a good idea whomever though it up.
