I'm sure there several companies would pop-up for a "X as a Service": you connect your own car to their API, and things like scheduling, mileage, depreciation, etc, would be computing for you. The company could also offer to sell/lease you a vehicle (NetJets-style).
- qdog 4y agoI think Uber/Lyft is that company, they just use human drivers, which has apparently made traffic worse now, and I wouldn't expect it to get better.
- vkou 4y agoThe reason Uber/Lyft/Taxis in general make traffic worse is because taxis have to travel X miles between dropping off a passenger to picking up another passenger. It's the form of transportation that makes the least efficient use of limited roadways. They do reduce parking requirements, though.
