@Tel @Aleums That's why I've always hated all this self-driving car bullshit. First, we're over 15 years away from autonomous cars. Second, bumper to bumper going at 100kph, 4 lanes of autonomous vehicles wouldn't even come close to the capacity of 1 train at 4 minute intervals. For the price of autonomous research (which is tax payer subsidized) we could literally just put rails in the street for individual autonomous rail transport.

I wrote a whole post on it:
