Yes, 100% will take awhile, but we're likely to see Self Driving Car Lanes first. In fact, in California, we can just replace the car pool lanes with Self Driving Car Lanes. These would be lanes of the freeway or multi-lane roads that only self driving cars can drive in. That would allow most of the efficiency gains to apply. Then we'll see a phasing out of bad drivers. People who get DUIs, X number of tickets, etc would be required to use a self driving car. So of the human drivers left, more will be competent. So basically, as self driving cars add additional load on the roads, we'll be slowly giving them more and more efficiency advantages to offset that load.
