You appear to be assuming that those 88 cars will be able to serve all the passengers on the #3, and that they will be the only cars on Main. Rather, an average load of 30 passengers per bus means eight cars to replace one bus, not two, and they'll have to share Main with all the other self-driving cars that present-day drivers have now adopted. Right now "only" about 70% of the city gets around by car, or about 1.7 million people - how will the roads look if another 490 thousand people decide to join them? |
You call it a car I call it a capsule that moves people. Capsules can be linked, stacked, de linked, in stacked - they can be the size of trains or the size of buses or the size of a coffin. Whata the difference between a skytrain and a single person capsule on the street? Nothing. They are the same serving different demand requirements.
