<abstract displayLabel="Summary">It promises to be the most far-reaching advance in mobility since the invention of the automobile itself, but its biggest impact won't be felt on the highway. Cities are where self-driving vehicles are most likely to fundamentally change -for the better- how people live, work, and, of course, get around. Far fewer accidents and much lower costs, as well as higher traffic efficiency, improved productivity, and lower pollution are just some of the  anticipated benefits. This research indicates, for example ,that widespread urban adoption of SDVs and "robo-taxis" could result in a 60% drop in the number of cars on city streets, an 80% or greater decrease in tailpipe emissions, and 90% fewer road accidents.</abstract>
