The Biggest Beneficiary Of Ride-Hailing Services Might Be Public Transit

Morgan Stanley analysts cautioned that all of the above predictions are far from certain, as public planners and policymakers could take "meaningful detours" in their various approaches to ride-hailing services. Perhaps most significantly, policymakers could decide to view such services as a public detriment, rather than as an opportunity for collaboration. "The transition to fully autonomous vehicles will likely be gradual," the report notes. "Yet this may not diminish the cumulative impact over time. For workers displaced by shared mobility and autonomous technology, there are no easy solutions."
