YES. THIS.

In VERY short order, cities are going to be FORCED to allow autonomous vehicles, or they will lose their largest employers.

Because these companies are going to drive the change to autonomous vehicles, simply because it makes good business sense.

And we may see that change driven by the LANDLORDS, even.

Imagine owning a 35-story office building, and knowing that you can create more rentable space in your building simply by requiring tenants to use autonomous vehicle services, and cutting your parking space by 50%.

This change is coming, and it will come fast.
