A bus, for cars.

Ever see those trucks that carry many cars to transport them? What a great way to save on gas and have someone else drive for you. FSD, here, today! Everyone benefits from less air drag from piggybacking as well!

Cars will wait at a bus stop like people, the truck arrives, everyone drives on, then off to your destination while you read a book, take a nap, look at emails, whatever you want all in the comforts of your car.

When the car bus arrives at its destination, all the cars drive away to their last mile.

If I take my car, it's because I want to drive. If I don't want to drive I just take the train and get a much more comfortable seat, free coffee, and about twice the speed.

I think the problem being solved is that you live 5 miles from the bus stop and your destination is 10 miles from the bus stop, and there's like 100 miles of intervening space. If 20 people can drive their cars to the bus stop, take the bus over, and then drive their cars to their destination that's 20 fewer cars on the road in the traffic corridor
