Really it's not the same a safari than going to the office and I assume the people who wants to drive in africa has some offroad experience and knows how to manage some non-usual situations (repair a punctures, use an offroad GPS, read maps, etc). | |

Added my vision about the difficulty to find animals if self-driving

Plus if you get in trouble, a professional bush driver is more likely to be able to get back home in one piece than someone who's more used to the commute to the office on a 6 lane instrumented highway. | |
