I live in the area and the streets are just clogged with these fucking autonomous cars. Traffic is slower, people end up having to swerve, it's just a constant persistent headache. If I had it my way, they'd all be off the streets and into the crusher

Almost like public transit is better than self driving taxis
Public transit is better, but self-driving taxis are absolutely coming to every city in this country, which is great if you live in a city like mine that has little to no public transport infrastructure.
Also, automated taxis can service more rural areas, which is the key driver of lack of public transport in many "commuter cities."
Luddites gonna Luddite, but this tech is coming, and it's coming to logistics and taxis first.
Yes, but SanFran ain't one of those. Taxis have the same problem cars do, which is size.
