Does this effect overcome the added amount of cars on the road from people who can now drive that wouldn't be able to before? I'm skeptical.
- gozur88 10y agoThat was my point. If I buy a van that drives itself I can tolerate much longer commutes - I'll just put a bed in the back and sleep my way to work. So what if it takes three hours. Incidentally, I was talking with a government transportation engineer recently, and that's what keeps them up at night - trips that are too long or just too inconvenient today become doable with self driving cars.
