I see driverless cars removing the need to own a personal car (within urban environments). Some people unfortunately want the private space that a car provides

  > I see driverless cars removing the need to own a personal car (within urban environments). Some people unfortunately want the private space that a car provides to them. It isn't that so much as... People will vandalise shared cars. Write on the walls, spill stuff and leave it, vomit, etc. This is less of a problem on manned public transport (e.g. buses, trains, etc) since there is an authority figure to limit it. So best case scenario they install cameras to stop the vandalism, but that then means you're being watched all of the time which is a little uncomfortable, when in a legitimately driverless car you could have actual privacy in theory. I think an employer provided driverless car system is believable. Essentially your employer scraps car parks, and then sends out its fleet of cars to pick up employees at home and brings them in. It is unlikely employees would vandalise the cars.
