    Oh, absolutely agreed, but we need a top to bottom re-think on how fees work in a future with electric and automomous vehicles.

    We already weren’t prepared for mass work from home altering parking fees, parking fines, and traffic tickets, it’s only going to get worse with autonomous vehicles.

    I could see cities doing what London is already doing, toll gates to access the city core.

    I can see a future where, if I’m not working from home, my autonomous vehicle drops me off at work, drives itself home, then comes and picks me up either at a pre-determined time, or when summoned, zeroing in on my cell phone signal.

    No speeding tickets, no parking tickets, no parking fees or fines. City is going to lose a BOATLOAD of money.
