Idea/prediction: If a company like Tesla or Uber owns all of the cars instead of people owning cars, they will have a financial incentive to own the roads and keep the roads in good shape, because they would have to pay for damage to their massive fleet of cars due to potholes, etc. Also, they could remove "redundant roads" to save costs, because if it takes longer to deliver stuff to a place because the road on the most direct route no longer exists, that extra time doesn't cost much if the cars are all electric and self-driving Originally from Creativity Wasted episode 85 Mark Sweetman (twitter.com/MarkTSweetman) Nick Leydorf (twitter.com/NickLeydorf Podcast: anchor.fm/free-consultation) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma) Recorded at Podcast Detroit (https://podcastdetroit.com)
