This would be ideal for myself.
I spend $1500/year on insurance and about $1000 in gas on a car I barely ever drive.
I am slow to get ready and leave the house as well.
If this thing could just show up at my doorstep and drive me to the grocery store and back every couple of weeks for a few dollars that would be incredible!
Plus I don't have to make smalltalk with a driver, bonus!
Not to mention the space I would save in my garage.
- hyperhopper 5y agoHow is the gas price relevant? If you're paying $1000 worth of gas a year, surely you're using $1000 of gas?
- choward 5y ago> $1000 in gas on a car I barely ever drive I wouldn't call $20 a week in gas "barely driving".
- midasuni 5y agoIt’s a little below average “ The average US resident drives 13,476 miles per year and spends about $1,262 on gasoline.” But that’s immaterial. If that’s 10,000 miles a year at an average of 20mph that’s 500 hours driving and 8,200 not driving - over 90% of the time the car is idle. I.e “hardly being used”
- badestrand 5y agoThe costs are just to enable the feature on the fly in the car you already own, so you will still need to buy gas and insurance.
- yazaddaruvala 5y agoIf the passenger still needs insurance, then the self-driving is not worth paying for. Would you pay for or use Uber if you also needed car insurance to be a passenger?
- adrianN 5y agoYou could probably order your groceries for a couple of dollars.
