Only 15% said they\u2019d use a driverless car for the school run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The survey, run by car dealership Citygate asked 10,000 UK drivers in which circumstances they would use a driverless car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Long-distance travel took the top spot, with 34% of Brits saying they\u2019d welcome a break from driving during lengthy journeys \u2013 suggesting there\u2019s some support for welcoming self-driving cars onto the UK\u2019s roads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>29% of survey participants admitted they\u2019d be most interested in using a driverless car while under the influence, and only 6% wouldn\u2019t use one at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A quarter of all respondents, and 40% of people living in the South West of England, said they\u2019d be most likely to rely on a driverless car after dark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just 15% of Brits said they\u2019d be happy to delegate the school run to a driverless car \u2013 suggesting that our trust in these autonomous vehicles may expire when it comes to children\u2019s safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>Ian McIntosh, RED Driving School CEO says: <strong><em>\u201cWe welcome all advances in technology, and we know that in the case of driverless cars, it\u2019s not \u2018if\u2019, but \u2018when\u2019 they arrive on our roads.
