I am late to the discussion. I dont understand why we cant have new Cities that only allows self driving cars. Full AV can react to other drivers, but they can surely act upon themselves.

This way, you can set out home with cars and you only operate the last part going to Cities for work. And when you leave you drive out to high way and then every full else will be automatics. It also partly solve housing problems and people can now live further away from work.

Surely this is a solution that is simply enough for the short term. What am I missing here?
