Respiratory problems are greatly decreased by further adoption of electric transportation, especially in chinese megacities where the situation was dire. Autonomous bus and taxi services led to less casualties on the streets because less people are still driving themselves (less DUI, being distracted, tired or otherwise not fit to drive). Taxi services got a lot cheaper because there are no longer drivers who need to be paid which in turn accelerated the transition away from car ownership. Traffic flow also improved because having a small fraction of autonomous vehicles on the road already prevents traffic jams out of nowhere by cushioning the density waves that can appear in traffic by human drivers (that's really a thing!). Overall look of cities improved since less parking spots are required. Rules that regulated required parking spaces for customers were lifted which gave the opportunity to open more shops in closer proximity. I will add it later if I can think of more.
