To Drive or to be Driven? How Self-Driving Vehicles Might Impact the Future of Mobility
Although it is still uncertain how fast and how strong self-driving cars will diffuse in the transport system, high impacts on mobility are very much likely in the next decades. Self-driving cars promise increasing safety and energy efficiency, less traffic issues in cities and especially higher comfort for people who don’t want to drive on their own. Nice prospects, but who are the persons benefiting most from autonomous vehicles? And how could those people change their travel behavior in case they don’t drive anymore but are driven by a computer? Will we consequently see a totally different world of transportation in the future?
