For those of us preferring not to drive, public transport -even if only on major roads -would be a godsend and just think of how it might alleviate parking woes….
My biggest disappointment with life in TV and its design is lack of walkability to necessities (grocers, restaurants, etc).
Guess we can’t have it all…

I'm not down there full time so I can't say how Uber is there. But up here, if I want a short ride it's almost impossible to get a driver to take the ride. I want to go to a local bar, 10 minute ride and they won't pick me up because they make nothing.
What I want is for Uber to allow me to put in what I am going to tip before the ride. I'd pay $20 for a ride each way if I know I shouldn't be driving home. But the driver has no way to know that and none of them accept the ride.
Self driving cars would be great but I'm betting there will still be some liablity on the human in the car if they are drunk.
