Jumping ahead far into the future leads me to one question. IF driverless cars become the norm.

Why do people use taxis and uber now when they go out for an evening? So they don't have to drive home drunk would be the answer. Now if someone owns a driverless car in the future then why would they need ubers driverless car service. Your car could drop you off then you could send it home and return for you later when you summon it.

How long before the first self driving big rig gets boosted on a lonely stretch of highway? Put a traffic cone in the road and the thing will have to stop. A good ole boy trucker would just roll over that sonofagun.

Uber's world view is that in the future there should be no need for anyone to own a car.

Sure. Nice in theory. But how does everyone get to work during rush hour? And where do all those cars go to park at night when not in use. And about a thousand other reasons I can't be bothered to list here.

Driverless cars will be the norm with or without uber. Fortunately for uber not all people will have cars.

Not all people have cars now. I actually see less need for an uber type service if these miracle machines ever become commonplace reality.
