    This is really cool and you’re all sad wankers.

    Oh it doesn’t work in all these conditions.

    Well it went from not working at all to a completely self driving car in certain situations. That’s great. It’s the future. We are living in the future

        Agree. But last mile problem is more easily solved by self driving cars. Also if it functions as a mini bus then there will be even less cars.

          Getting on a train definitely feels like the future compared to a car.

          Don’t have to drive, faster, cleaner, more space, more comfort, can buy food, can go to toilet, better view.

            When the train can park next to my house so that my grandma on a wheelchair can get in, or get me to a KFC in the middle of the night, or move a random piece of furniture, I’m in.

            A nice bike lane infrastructure would be a blast too, for when you don’t need to move a cargo.

            Both are must for large cities, but unrealistic pretty much everywhere else.

              Good job that most trips don’t involve moving a grandma or furniture. Most people rent something if they want to move furniture anyway so that seems like a non issue.

              As for KFC deliveries. That doesn’t involve your own personal car so that doesn’t make any sense. No one is complaining about delivery vehicles.

              Cycle lanes are good. Last mile is the real problem. Cargo bike are a thing.

              So we need cycle lanes, we need trains, both of those are policy issues. Once they have self driving cars, or they invent taxis, that you can use to pick your grandma up for 1% of human trips. What’s the excuse then?

                I used to be a city dweller, like you. But now, in bumfuck nowhere, we deliver our own food.

                What’s the excuse then?
