Picture a taxis in the foreseeable future. Most of its manual controls conveniently and neatly hidden or outrightly taken out. The seats would be able to swirl around and facing each other.

Actually there are already cars that can do exactly this

The vehicle would be fully automatic and self driven(the tech for self driving cars would likely have been perfected then) and it would be for the most part, safe.

I want this perfected immediately. It’s incredibly anxiety inducing when a driver takes a wrong turn or says things that are a bit suspicious. So it would help save a lot of lives if it were automatic instead.

If this catches on, as it very well might, it could lead to less cars on the road as people might find it more convenient than to own and maintain a car when you could call for a taxi and have a self driving car pull-up to your door.

In today’s world where traffic is one of the biggest concerns and contributors to pollution, a good transportation system would be a good idea. We should start it right now instead of waiting for perfected automated cars.
