I hope and expect it to be within the next 5 to 10 years, tbh.

  It probably depends on your budget. For a $100k car? Could be. For a $20k car? Now that's quite a challenge!

    5 or 10 bucks. Pay per trip.

      I hope we get this sooner than the privately-owned self-driving cars. So long as folks can buy monthly passes (or give poor folks the passes at free and/or reduced rates), I think this has the potential to greatly improve lives.

        Municipalities that run demand response bus services will be quick adopters. One of their big costs is drivers, so they tend to use a few medium sized vehicles. No drivers, they move to smaller vehicles and deploy more of them (they probably even shift their level of service up, because why not).

        That is of course exactly what I'm taking about. If you're old having easy access to transport like that will be a revolutionary change. Old people will be able to safely live much further from cities.
