Reply to comment by cjeam in Automakers are going all-in on gaming to keep us in our cars by Test19s

The buss is filled with strangers and many struggle in this situation (myself included) due to social anxiety, fear of getting sick or any other reason people may have. The bus is not the answer for everyone

I have not been on the buss regulary for like 10-15 years and i dont plan to change this if i can avoid it ;)

Your alternative would be a taxi then.

Which is going to be expensive yes, so is a self-driving car, and not everyone is going to be able to use a self-driving car either.

Taxi is way to expensive yes also not needed since i have no problem affording a car. I drive a prius hybrid due to keeping the environment in mind and the next car i hope will electric. I doubt my next car will be selfdriving but i hope the one after the next one will be.

When selfdriving becomes normal many people might have the car work as a taxi when its not needed by the owner. This might reduce the price of transport alot, making it easy and cheap enough for people to be able to drop car ownership if they dont want to. (you would just order a ride through an app and it will collect the nearest selfdriving car that is awailable)
