How will that help? By some studies, about 30% of traffic on downtown city streets is drivers circulating looking for street parking. With self-driving cars, they could cause congestion by circulating all day instead of parking.
I’ve seen stuff about sharing them so there’s less cars parked and people just get dropped off and it takes the next person. But taxis already exist and haven’t solved the problem so I don’t think self driving cars are the answer there.
