BBC Radio 4 - You and Yours, Driverless cars, Mobile phone 'notspots', Stranded on holiday

A look at what it is like to be a passenger in a driverless car.

Consumer affairs, including what it is like to be a passenger in a driverless car and what happened to a government promise to bring mobile phone coverage to remote places.

And who is picking up the bill for holidaymakers stranded in Egypt?

Presenter: Winifred Robinson
Producer: Jon Douglas.
