A white-haired, elderly woman plays the piano, we see her from behind. In another set, a younger man plays a keyboard with his computer off to the side, also seen from behind.

The man stands and collects a tape recorder from the shelf, it flashes back to a young boy with glasses receiving the tape recorder on a bright, sandy beach. The boy uses headphones connected to the recorder and listens to the waves.

We hear "Ethan" at this point. He removes the headphònes, and we return to present day as the young man removes his own headphones. He retrieves a key fob from a dish he keeps on the desk.

We see shots of the beach as the young man uses a long microphone boom to listen to the waves. We then see him in a field, and in the forest.

We see a shot of a disabled placard on the rear view mirror of a car as it smoothly drives through the woods.

The elderly woman from the beginning sits on the front steps of her home, a red car drives up. The door opens and a folded long white cane is extended, the young man exits the car. The elderly woman comes over to hug him. They embrace. We flash back to the young boy learning piano from his mother with the tape recorder on top of a black grand piano.

The young man gives the elderly woman the tape recorder, and they walk out of frame. We see the red car, it's a Tesla.

I want to prove to the world that self driving cars are not scary. They are a safer option. Perhaps one day in the future, safe enough for the visually impaired to drive. I truly believe this is a possibility and I want it to happen.

As for the video. I chose red as his color because, from my research, it is the color most visible on the color spectrum. I wanted it to be an emotional story about a son and his mother. His visual impairment does not entirely define him.

Thank you for taking the time to watch and or listen to the story.

I hope to live to see this happen in my lifetime.

Damn, right in the feels... I am a visually impaired driver with limitations on my license and I am unbelievably grateful for that but my future is unclear when it comes to driving. Autonomous cars give me hope and comfort that even if I’m not allowed to drive someday, I’ll still get to experience all the things I want to behind the wheel. I’ve been on 15 cross country drives by myself and dream of the day I get to share that with my future family. Thank you for making this spot, I have a feeling I’m gonna be returning to this video frequently for a touch of comfort.

I'm not quite understanding the impact of this video.

The scenario being depicted isn't some unattainable goal that we can only dream about. It is almost certainly in inevitability that will likely happen some time in the next decade.

Statistically autonomous cars are already safer than humans. Then again most people likely haven't done much research on the subject. I can imagine giving up control to a machine is a terrifying prospect for most people.

Maybe this video isn't for me. It seems like it's more for people who aren't sold on the idea yet. It's for people who are still wary about a car driving itself and haven't really thought through the enormous benefit it would bring to those who can't drive. Based on the comments in the video I imagine most people haven't thought about the prospect of letting the disabled move around more freely.

Tesla is quickly advancing autonomous driving. Currently their cars are between tier 2 and tier 3 which is good. If they can keep it together they can likely push up to tier 4 in the near future which is where we'll finally be able to get them to ride around on dedicated lanes. Even if they disappear we've still got most of the tech giants working on it as well.

It's going to happen and most likely will happen soon.

I'm rather excited. Annoyed at how much red tape there is and how long it's taking, but excited nonetheless. Perhaps videos like this will help to convince the public to move faster on accepting it.
