If robo-taxis actually manage to reduce the number of people that own cars, it also has other advantages - mainly less need for parking spaces.

- BurningFrog 3y agoA robo-taxi driving 24/7 replaces 24 cars driving 1h/day, 23 of which are parked on average. This would be a huge improvement in resource efficiency.

- mlyle 3y agoYes, it was an overreach; we won't get 24x in utilization, but we could pretty easily get a few times. And the cars don't need to then park where people live.
- BurningFrog 3y agoSure, human movement is unevenly distributed, but a robo-taxi can also be used for deliveries during non rush hours. There is also probably 1 hour of service per day needed. You won't get 24x efficiency, but 15x is good enough.
