Good post. Everyone talks about the time-saving, the reduction of accidents, but no one has taken the urban planning angle seriously yet. Briefly mentioned in the article was the fact that we could program our cars to drop us off and then park in some remote location while we worked/ate/studied.

I think it will soon become automatic (you won't have to tell a car anything except "come get me" or "take me here"). Cars will become a service, and most people won't own one - only collectors and hobbyist drivers.
