I do sometimes wish we'd just devote one lane of our larger freeways to self-driving cars exclusively. You could let the cars drive as fast as they want, and charge per-mile tolls for any car that uses it when the road is congested. Ideally, you'd charge based on occupancy as well: an empty car should have to pay more than a car with a human in it, and a car with 2+ people might be allowed to use the lane for free.
