Autonoma bilar, förbättra eller förstör våra städer?

En väldigt intressant artikel om hur beslutsfattare verkar helt ha missat påverkan av våra städer av självkörande bilar, som definitivt kommer. En del är inte direkt nytt för er här på forumet. Men det är definitivt ett intressant inlägg.

Picture zombie cars — those with no one in them — clogging our cities and our roads, because it will be cheaper to keep them moving than to pay for expensive urban parking, and cheaper to bring retail to a customer than to pay rent on a retail store. While the number of vehicle miles driven skyrockets, our transportation infrastructure revenues, dependent on the gas tax, parking, fees, and fines will disappear.
The Center for Automotive Research found that taxes associated with motor vehicle manufacturing and use amounted to $206 billion a year. Major sources of revenue for city, state, and country transportation infrastructure — fuel taxes, parking revenue, parking and speeding fines, driver registrations — will disappear if we go with electric AVs.
