Just a crazy aside, it seems like current policy as well as the potential ones in this thread seem to tax or affect poor more. For example: the way we tax road use is through gas - rich people in EVs don't pay this tax.

Some people in this thread are suggesting to just make cars with self driving capability prohibitedly expensive, forcing them to rent an Uber instead of owning. Sounds just like our current housing market. Some suggestions are to charge for the mile and time of day... Again restrictions against poor from driving when rich people want to do so.

Another suggestion is to have more private roads, presumably again owned by rich people, with little regard for the poor already paying rent on everything else.
