I know. I was hoping for flying cars by now, too, so what I'm talking about might not happen, either.
I'm not sure what the saturation for people taking commuter trains is, but if autonomous cars get adopted en masse, that might be the difference? One thing I didn't consider before talking to people in London, when the subway is full there is no relaxing and reading a book. You're elbow to elbow and likely standing the whole time. I know commuter trains aren't like that, though.
Like you're saying, googlebus makes it easier to work longer hours. Conversely, carpooling (or missing the train) keeps people to sane working hours. Taking a bike pushes people to leave before it gets dark outside. I'll be interesting to see how it changes our behaviors.
