    There’s too much money to be made getting people onto a subscription model for transport. It will 100% happen, maybe just not on the timeline they would want you to believe.

      Happened forever ago. It was (and is) called a train. Self driving cars will not succeed.

        A train cannot run directly to your house. Driverless cars 100% will happen, eventually road taxes will force manual drivers off the road. Too much money to be made from forcing people onto subscriptions and also cutting the costs on delivery drivers for it not to happen.

        If you look at how far along the tech is already, why kid yourself that it’s not going to continue to improve and eventually be better than a human driver.
