I am not going to leave the kids at home, hoping they get into the car and off to the daycare centre, so I am assuming you mean before I get to work. So that means I have to wait for the car to get back before I get to work? Wouldn't that just cost me additional fuel? Seems like a bit of a waste to have my car go out twice (or four times if we count both getting to work and home) every weekday.
Isn't this a more likely scenario if the car was leased and/or it was a car pooling thing? But in that case, why are we wasting our times with cars? Why aren't we making buses self-driving? Car pool even more people in one vehicle!
I can imagine a common type of vehicle for self-driving cars that will be popular would be 'small buses', ones that carry 8-12 people, that drive unique routes.
- agumonkey 10y agoBuses are lacking privacy/familiar feel of your own van (considering you want to use one car for a larger amount of people). And it's harder to plan a route the more people in the vehicle. Now you have a point about kids safety. The car could still pick up and move things while you're busy, this means less time on the road when you are aka rush hours.
