    from within 5 minutes of where you live and goes to within 5 minutes of where you want to be

    That’s technically true where I live but it would require waiting for a local bus at each end of most trips, and that’s usually slower than walking.

      Sure, but I cannot imagine that Elon’s newest toy would solve that. It still needs to be dispatched from somewhere. Obviously, it would solve it, if you splurged on tons of robovans, much like you’d solve it, if you splurged on tons of buses.

        Scheduled pick-up is already a thing on ride shares.

        I don’t think it is intended to replace busses for the public. My guess is that the target market is companies that offer private ride shares to their employees.
