And I don’t expect most rides to be single occupancy. People will opt for shared rides if they are substantially cheaper,
Bus. That’s called a bus. It can also fit more than five people and doesn’t use as much energy to transport each person. You just reinvented a shittier bus
Wrong. I invented a better bus. Well, i didn’t, none of this is new. A bus that goes straight to your destination with few or no stops. A bus that always tells you exactly when it’s going to arrive. A bus that can go to a lot of places a large bus can’t. And of course one that’s a lot quiet and cleaner. What exactly is your problem with that concept?
Traffic jams and cost. You can’t be this stupid, can you? I literally pointed out buses take up less space and use less energy. Why ask your question as if I hadn’t pointed out the negatives of your solution compared to buses (or other public transit vehicles).
Also, it’s not quiter or cleaner, since more cars = more noise compared to one bus (you can’t consider the vehicle without considering it’s capacity), and you generate a lot more pollution (rubber tires produce a lot of particles, and you have more vehicles and more tires with taxis). So stop lying.
The reason people in cities with proper transportation don’t worry that much about getting a bus directly to their destination is that the network is comprehensive enough to cover all manner of trips, from any one point in the city to another. Same with frequency, if it’s arriving in less than 5-10 minutes it doesn’t matter when exactly it arrives.
