Driverless vehicles in Yellowstone

Just had this pop up on my phone, Driverless vehicles carrying visitors around in Yellowstone Yellowstone At this point it appears to be a very small route, but could grow in the future. Couldn't help but remember a movie with driverless vehicles carrying people around in a wildlife park. Shades of Jurassic Park? What could possibly go wrong??????:R
Will be interesting to see how they operate with wildlife.
  • We've been to most all national parks over the years. Probably go back to camping in national forests sooner than ride a shuttle. If the parks are that crowded, it's not a great experience anyway, unless you've never been there.
  • We were there a couple of weeks ago, the driverless vehicles were only going around the parking lots and store campus areas. There was an attendant with the thing.
  • Does the park pay attendants less than drivers? Driverless vehicles maybe coming but I’m not ready yet.

    They have had driverless shuttles in Tampa since last fall.... haven't been on one but haven't heard of any major mishaps.
