It's part of why I find the autonomous car argument so absurd. People are investing billions upon billions of dollars to create a more convenient and energy-efficient transportation infrastructure using cars... the LEAST efficient method to do so, and the most expensive to implement. It's for this reason why I think truly autonomous vehicles are much further away than people think, and when they DO arrive I'd predict that the vast majority of them will be 10-12 passenger on-demand autonomous vans that optimize per-person efficiency and reduce traffic.
