I doubt it, but the key thing to remember about the pre-car era is that many (most?) people didn't own horses for personal transportation.https://twitter.com/vctrmonteiro/status/946096626740862986 …

I think that they could really help with commuter rail to address parking at suburban commuter rail stations, as well as addressing the last mile (or two) problem that mass transit often has.
-
I maintain that most of the last mile problem = people being unwilling to walk (a mile isn't very far, guys! 20 minutes tops), but yes, for "last 5 mile" problems, AVs would be a game changer

Good point. Another great thing is going to be the end of surface parking lots and garages in cities. It’s going to open up so much space in American cities (outside of NYC, SF, etc.) for development and parkland.
-
yes! and that, in itself, offers many opportunities to solve last mile problems: adding more stuff within a mile of stations!
