> Due to the transformational potential of autonomous vehicle technology, it is critical that all AVs are part of shared fleets, well-regulated, and zero emission. Shared fleets can provide more affordable access to all, maximize public safety and emissions benefits, ensure that maintenance and software upgrades are managed by professionals, and actualize the promise of reductions in vehicles, parking, and congestion, in line with broader policy trends to reduce the use of personal cars in dense urban areas.

Sounds reasonable to me, imagine how much premium land could be unlocked if car parks were relegated to a thing of the past? Not to mention adding more throughput on smaller urban streets choked with parking.

Or god forbid, more cycling lanes . . .

Nope.

Nope. Dressing up a monopoly as more efficient, is not fooling anyone anymore.
