Once autonomous driving is solved, we'll likely see a gradual and long-term transformation of urban and suburban areas. In urban areas, high-demand parking spots/lots may no longer command a premium as autonomous cars can drop you off and park themselves in cheaper spots. As a result, autonomous cars allows for a chance to improve the design of urban centers by converting previous parking infrastructure to green areas, parks, walking corridors, and/or residential zones. Further, autonomous cars will eventually impact urban traffic flow as fewer people will bee circling the block looking for parking, meaning less congestion (possibly). Autonomous cars will make it easier for people who live farther from their workplaces by allowing easier, cheaper, and more convenient transportation to and from work. Reduced traffic congestion could mean fewer emissions and improved air quality. On top of that practically all (if not vast majority) of autonomous vehicles will be electric, which will mean vastly lower emissions. More people will likely opt out of owning a car and not have to deal with parking, insurance, maintenance, etc., especially when autonomous taxis become cheaper than what it would cost to own a car. Businesses might not need to provide parking to customers, which could allow for the growth of more compact and pedestrian-friendly shopping areas. Autonomous cars will enable mobility for the elderly, disabled, and those w/o vehicles in a way that can be comparable to owning/driving one own's vehicle. This could lead to higher quality of life and independence for certain groups. Autonomous cars could encourage more tourism as people can easily travel around new places, cities, countries. People will have more time for personal development or entertainment/etc because the time spent driving in traffic can be spend relaxing, learning, or whatever the person wishes to do. Autonomous driving will save a lot of lives as many accidents are due to human error or impaired driving. Cost of insurance will likely decrease a lot due to fewer accidents. The freight industry will become much more efficient with autonomous trucks operating around the clock. In other words, shipping of goods will become a lot cheaper. Home delivery will be much faster and much cheaper. All forms of transport will go autonomous - cars, trucks, vans, buses, boats, etc. Anyway, autonomous driving will spark a lot of changes and these are a just a few. What else will change once autonomous driving is solved?
