@kimmaicutler@StartupLJackson@kcm Food for thought: A single 60' 38R bus carries 100 ppl, equivalent of 50 2-pax cars (815' w/o gaps). -
@kimmaicutler@StartupLJackson@kcm Oh, and car may have won in US, but not in SF -- 1/2 trips here made without one (Transit=25%, Uber<1%).

@kimmaicutler@StartupLJackson@kcm Further food for thought: self-driving cars means self-driving buses, too, operating at crazy-low costs. -
@kimmaicutler@StartupLJackson@kcm W/o labor, fixed route buses will be profitable again, as they were from 1662-WWII. Will be interesting. - 2 more replies
