The only way the wait is going to be 5 minutes is if its already in your driveway.

In my experience, it's already less than 5 minutes for Lyft in SF.

So are we only talking about Major metropolitan areas? Because to completely displace car ownership I think it will take more then that. Also I would guess that the percentage of people who own cars in large cities is already significantly lower then most other places.

No, we are talking about examples for which it would take less than 5 minutes to show up.
