    Uhhh. If someone wants their vehicle, and it's in the middle of a block, it's going to take a while to extract it. And with multiple dropoffs and pickups, it could get very complicated. Presumably the system will collect information about intended pickup time, and arrange vehicles accordingly. And maybe it could charge extra for early pickup.

    USA still the best. But barely.
    Thorough background checks I hope. Nobody wants a crackhead robot parking their car.
