Rideshares can be quite convenient, taking into account the hassle of parking and traffic in the Emerald City. In fact, the form of transportation is projected to replace private car ownership — and the need for most parking — because the option is far cheaper than owning a car.

The Washington State Transportation Commission is already considering options to transform I-5 into a driverless-only freeway.
