If you're set on this, sure!

Private parking is going to be $$$ -- way more so than now-- so good luck popping into the city to laugh at us plebs when you want.

I don’t need to park bro. When I come into the city, I’ll just set MY OWN cheap, reliable, long lasting personal autonomous vehicle where I can keep my own sh!te in to cruise around Central Park until I’m ready to leave. These things are easy to solve.

Maybe. Maybe not.

There will still be carpooling. Then you can ride for even less. Maybe even robo-busses.

Prices will be highest at rush hour, so some might choose to go to and from work when the rates are cheaper. Thus, you reduce demand.

I don't see why it makes sense to park. The cost of driving around is next to nothing compared to the cost of missing a fare. I would expect a lot of cars will be charging at night, but the streets will still be full of robotaxis looking to make a buck. Parking would cost more than driving around.

Won't these robotaxis be driving around the city at 300mph? At that speed they can probably give rides to 150 people an hour.

This is probably not a great move...Dems moving to sideline people in the minority party.

Have to think that when the Rs retake the chamber they'll do the same as a tit for tat.

Obvi the only way to handle this is for the Rs to sideline their own bad actors.

Dems did that and kicked out a senator.

Rs have no scruples and are terrified so they won't do their job.

I tend to agree. But I'm not sure how much damage she can do as one member of a committee. Not sure why the D's would do this. I'd like to hear an explanation from Pelosi.

Good on you bro. You agree there is going to be a sh!teload of traffic increase. Cars just driving around in circles with no one in them.

Don’t need to carpool when it’s so cheap. Don’t want to ride with stinky Larry if I don’t have to to save a buck.

Is there going to be a law that says I can’t get a Robotaxi to the city even if I have MY OWN cheap, reliable, long lasting personal autonomous vehicle that I can keep my own sh!te in at home.

Yes. Just to annoy you

Won’t annoy me. You know why. I’ll have MY OWN personal cheap, reliable, long lasting autonomous vehicle I can keep my own sh!te in.

Most cities will only need one. All problems solved.

Congrats to President Biden, the 45th President of the United States.

Special interest groups don't belong in the White House.

A President with a strong conscience and desire for public good can go a long way.

I would be focusing on improving reading comprehension and basic mathematics for k-12 students.

All Americans should be graduating from high school able to read, write and communicate well.

In addition, they should be able to divide, multiply and have a good concept of numbers.

Furthermore, all Americans deserve to be healthy. President Biden ought to focus on the well being of Americans who need it most. Excercise and diet is important, espeically for those who are on the fringes of society.

Congrats again President Biden!

Thanks, Greg. As an American, I’ll make sure Joe gets the message. ?

Thanks Greg! I'm interested in your hopping on one leg challenge. I may challenge Americans to see how long they can do it as part of an exercise program.

I understand you are Canadian so might not know, but Joe Biden is actually the 46th president of the United States.

Ok. Name the 45 different men who were U.S. Presidents before him.

Cuomo, Cuomo, Cuomo, Trump?

Lol, that article is too funny.

I'm betting the president is good for at least 3 hops.

Good news. A lot late, but good news, nonethless.

We really need(ed) the low cost strips developed though. $30 a pop for these.

You did a yeoman's work my friend. Your posts are...unique, I guess.

You are correct that robotaxis will not replace private ownership (it was hard to tell if that was one of your points). The projections for the cost differential are not high enough. Obviously, they will replace the current taxi service model since having a driver is far and away the primary cost. However, in areas where the cost of private ownership is substantially lower, the impact will be minimal on private ownership.
