Will you be able to buy a fully autonomous, Level 5 self-driving car in the US by 2040? While the development of self-driving cars is moving quickly, there are still many challenges to overcome before they become widely available.

This question will resolve positively if a Level 5 autonomous car is available for purchase in the US by December 31, 2040. Level 5 refers to "steering wheel optional" autonomy, where the vehicle can perform all required functions with zero intervention.

@MarkIngraham I disagree, Waymo's Taxis are Level 4, because they're limited to only a single region. If Waymo had a ton more cars and was active in 50 US cities instead of like 3, that would 'mean something'.
