As a tangent, I think people are severely underestimating how high the percentage of non-passenger vehicles will go up when we're driverless. I'm not talking about empty passenger vehicles looking for passengers, rather goods being shuttled to and fro. Look at all the startups for bringing you food and various other goods that are semi-profitable even with a human wage. History and common sense show that making something cheaper will mean we make more use of it. The driverless future will be filled with autonomous vehicles moving goods around our cities. In the extreme we may even lose apartment kitchens in dense areas because shuttling your meals to you may be cheaper.
