They do naff all for congestion in built-up areas though.
You're replying to my post about driverless cars?
They do loads for congestion, once you move to a model where people don't own cars and park empty, stationary cars on the side of the streets anymore.

Congestion is largely the product of junction capacity, not link capacity. Removing parking doesn't help you.
You can (ok maybe could) see your personal shared vehicle utopia in the west end on a Saturday night when the place was completely clogged with Ubers, one or two people in each, none of them going anywhere.

An EV is just a car with a less (locally) polluting drive train. Everything else is marketing wank.
