Well, one point could be to eventually phase out individual ownership of cars in favor of rentals, which you then don't have to drive. You just hail one, it picks you up, and takes you somewhere. Which brings us a step further in that people won't even need a license. But, again, public transport is already a thing that exists, and does all that more safely and efficiently.

Another point is for Silicon Valley venture capitalists to further enrich themselves with pointlessly hyped startups, which is a favorite pastime of theirs.
