>I think that self-driving cars may actually increase traffic
Your assumption is that cars will stay the same form and shape after they become self-driving, which is myopic. Without needing all of the safety protection cars or three spare seats, cars can be far smaller and you can easily envision a sitution when we get a x4 increase in traffic density, meaning traffic won't be an issue.
- tmptmp 10y ago>>Without needing all of the safety protection Curious to know, what safety protections can be removed. Also, how small a car can get, given the limits put by the physics of comfort, balance, commute speed, aerodynamics?
