#private Car Growth = Zero

Views: 579
Singapore,
. . . plans to limit the number of private cars on its streets, to the
. . . 600,000 currently in use starting in 2018.

The problem is,
. . . Singapore has no room to put any more cars.
. . . Roads already account for 12% of the total area of city-state.

Singapore, is already experimenting with self-driving vehicles, in theory,
. . . one autonomous car can replace up to
. . . 10 privately owned vehicles, which sit idle more than
. . . 90% of the time during the work day.
. . . Instead of taking up space in a parking lot,
. . . an autonomous car could be busy ferrying others
. . . from place to place all day long,
. . . greatly reducing the number of private cars needed on city streets.
