Unless you’re one of those people who can’t drive?
- cyberax 2y agoThat indeed is the biggest problem. Waymo is already solving it in SF, though.
- saagarjha 2y agoPeople can't afford to spend $20 every time they want to go anywhere.
- cyberax 2y agoThe thing is, a transit trip's true cost is also around $20 in SF and Seattle. It's just that perverse incentives hide it from users. Waymo taxis deserve the same level of subsidies. It won't be happening any time soon because it'll be a death knell for transit, and will leave thousands of city employees without work.
- saagarjha 2y agoThis isn’t true, unless you’re willing to consider the subsidies that cars get when it comes to putting in and maintaining roads and doing urban planning around half the city being car surfaces.
