Automated vehicles are GPS guided. The US is too big to be walking and biking. That is for an urban environment with proper zoning laws, and serves what amounts to be an ethnic group who shouldn’t need cars. What makes automated vehicles more efficient is the removal of labor and lower operational costs. The specialization of transporting people to the exact GPS coordinates is much more convenient. The future is automated travel because it is much more efficient and vehicles can be used more productively on the margin than everybody having to own their own car. This technology can be used in bus transit systems as well.
