Wouldn't you want to start with saving people's lives? 30,000-40,000 people die in the US every year.

Any place where mobility is needed is where you'll want to start. I was simply stating that if uptake was going to be slower due to human irrationality, you'd start where people absolutely need transportation and have no other option.

People are much more open minded about a choice when they have no other choice.
