Won't this better traffic flow be offset by new congestion from AVs using the capacity of public roads as free car parks?
aka the Jevons Paradox
- ben-schaaf 4y agoThis is the case for all transit, known as induced demand. Increase the number of lanes on a road and you'll get as bad if not worse traffic than before as the increased capacity results in more people driving.
