@Cevilia That’s why I said varying sizes of vehicles. The app would just be to enter your destination and pay, assuming there wasn’t a universal charge or tax for usage. You don’t want them to stop everywhere, just where they are needed.
If the cars ran on a schedule, you wouldn’t need to enter your destination at all. And maybe the cars could just have a little machine near the front that accepts cash or contactless payments. No smartphone required. Also, they wouldn’t have to stop everywhere. People on the street who wanted to travel could flag down a passing car, and people on board could press a button to request a stop. :)
Why not make these cars bigger, so they can pick up and drop off a chain of multiple parties of travellers more efficiently?
Once demand’s been established, we could even do away with the phone app and just run the cars on a schedule.
This idea sounds really bussin
