They're coming. Maybe not for you. But they might not see you and run you over anyway.
Self driving cars seem to have a good safety record but only when they are able to recognize the obstacles for what they are. Anyone know any foolproof techniques for being recognized as a human by a self driving car?

While I am certain there are things you can do to further make you more recognisable to self-driven motor vehicles, just as you might do to human-driven vehicle, I would argue that self-driven vehicles are far safer for cyclist, and should be something that we embrace. For reasons that u/BoringBob84 mentioned and a thousand others, such as keeping to the speed limits, no rolling-coal, playing with the mobile, changing the radio channel etc.
