You’ve already lost the ability to remember the street names on your routes, you’re so used to Apple Maps just saying when you have to turn left or right. Now it looks as if Apple wants to save you thinking about driving routes, and even destinations, at all.
“Guidance Of Autonomous Vehicles In Destination Vicinities Using Intent Signals,” is a newly-revealed patent application concerning the use of autonomous driving in an “Apple Car.” In particular, it’s about the user interface and how a driver or passenger could control the car’s route when there may not be any steering wheel or brakes.
