When you see in the video just a few of the possible scenarios, you realise the amount of computing that will be required for the vast number of situations.  I can see these things taking as long as Granny to decide on a course of action.  They might incorporate a "shoot back" facility for the road rage they'll encounter.
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

It won't be to long and the self drive bike will get made up with the self balancing bike and we'll be riding around in two wheel cars......
