Do not wait to incorporate public transit into your life

[Sylvia]

I agree with what you are saying, but I suspect in the next 10-20 years if not sooner, transportation as we know it will be very different particularly in urban areas. Even though the automotive industry has stayed pretty much the same the last 100 or so years, it is one of the next areas that will experience some major disruption.

There are a number of things happening in this area:

• Move towards developing fully autonomous self-driving cars by a number of companies

• Uber, Lyft and even BMW, and Tesla considering autonomous ride sharing

• Move from fossil fuels to electric cars particularly as things go more autonomous . Tesla already has cars that will go more than 200 miles on a full charge (and one that can go more than 300).

I expect this all to cause some major disruption in transportation particularly in urban areas and I would think some potential impact for public transportation as well.
