What else do people do for work besides think and communicate their thoughts? Practical implementation, you say? Well, that's just a question of rolling your sleeves up and doing the work; once you get the authorization and access to the real-estate and equipment to add your labor to. But that's the problem, isn't it, getting the authorization from a convoluted network of conflicting interests.
Think about it. It would be much simpler to just put down rails than to go through all this trouble of designing and testing self-driving vehicles, but automotive interests and other interests block passenger rail service in various ways, so then we have to use autonomous vehicle control systems without rails. Then they try to block that as well. And through it all, they keep saying that it's just a question of what the free market wants. What baloney.
