How exactly are we going to pay for the police when people stop getting speeding/parking tickets due to self-driving cars?

With the money we’re saving on costs associated with car ownership & bad drivers.

You don't have to. You just have to tax the driverless car companies so they pass on less savings to consumers.

Who says you have to earmark at source? Just increase corporate taxe rate. Done. Wide net.

I think we're due and somebody will pull it off. It's been 25 years since Reagan pushed pendulum one way.
