I&#x27;d agree that the issue is with how we (US perspective) have built our cities and require too much face time. I&#x27;d also agree that driverless cars are a stopgap measure. That being said, they might present a way to transition to more efficient models, and in the short term they can relieve the burdens of many. It occurred to me the other day that there are many people who can&#x27;t drive themselves and have to give up a measure of independence to be reliant on someone else to get them places. Driverless cars could give them back their independence.
