A rather obvious omission: the author is aware of the Paratransit issue while totally ignoring the fact that Paratransit passengers generally need assistance from a human for things like boarding assistance (in and out) and storage/retrieval/assembly of gear/chair/etc. That needs strikes me as making driverless vehicles an inherently incomplete solution for Paratransit needs.
