Sustainable Digital Dividend: reduced emissions; no crashes; no congestion by MarkCapron

Thank you for your participation to the 2013 Climate CoLab Transportation Efficiency contest. The judges were impressed by this idea; it is cutting-edge and futuristic. Unfortunately, your proposal was not selected as a finalist. The judges have provided some comments for your consideration: - How does the proposal link to existing driverless car research (by Google and other academic groups)? - What is the basic idea of this proposal? Is it the general idea of driverless cars, or something more specific? - The proposal does not specifically mention how carbon emissions can be mitigated (other than emissions standard, which can be applicable to regular vehicles too). This should be clarified. - Driverless vehicles will impart additional costs on the consumer side (more expensive vehicles), which should be considered in this proposal.
