The objections to self-driving cars make me laugh; it's like people haven't considered the considerable costs that human-driven cars impose, and the propensity for human-caused car crashes.

And the high cost of parking: http://shoup.bol.ucla.edu/PrefaceHighCostFreeParking.pdf

Also Cruise [1]. I don't envy the CPUC commissioners that have to sit through those kinds of meetings regularly.
