That. Most cars today contain one person – the driver.
Until we have full autonomy, they have to keep their focus on the road.
I read about four books/month.
Whenever I used public transport to commute that number doubled.
Not so when I commuted by car.
And don't tell me I can listen to audio books. This doesn't compare in reading speed.
And it is also is a dangerous distraction for most driving situations that are not an empty highway or a traffic jam.
