It's not just about safety - a car seat is not ergonomically designed to accommodate a toddler.

>a car seat is not ergonomically designed to accommodate a toddler.

Neither are church pews, why are you worried about ergonomically designed seats for toddlers? Daily 8 hour car rides?

Or is it along the lines you are worried you won't be paying enough attention to your child and something horrible could... while you are not driving?

Because churches aren't changing velocity all the time, causing your body to move around. Even with safer automatic cars, we'll still need seat belts. Have you ever tried strapping an adult seat belt onto a 2 year old?

Why are cars changing velocity all the time? Not enough input and output on the conditions outside the car.

Self driving cars don't have to drive like humans, they have to drive like 90% of the other cars. Remove the humans and self driving cars can adopt far more sophisticated traffic patterns than the simple stop/go of most city traffic.
