Sharing a pod with 2 or 3 random strangers as opposed to many in a train or bus might actually increase your chance of being victimized by people engaging in criminal acts.

something most transit nerds don't have a good intuition for is that mass transit is *absurdly too efficient* moving all commuters from 1 person per car to 2 people would solve traffic, and 4 people buys insane headroom no buses or trains needed, just zoox pods

@AbstractEntityZ You have identity, credit cards, video, and a digital log of every occupant; bad actors get banned. Versus public transit where there is zero identification and any criminal can hop a turnstile. And you think the anonymous one is going to have *less* assault?

@JCovetti This assumes that all of this could easily be enforced. Also, on the flipside, a lot of people wouldn't want to be reliant on a social credit score to use transportation either. Not just criminals but even non-criminals who may be somewhat rude or whatever.

@loganb @_caswel @JCovetti The people who would get screwed over the most by this are people who are kind of rude but not criminals and who don't directly violate anyone in any way per se. Like certain autistic people for instance.

@loganb @_caswel @JCovetti Because someone might give you a bad social credit rating for failing to say "please" or "thank you" or whatever or for making some mildly offensive comment.

@loganb @_caswel @JCovetti Perhaps, yes. Or someone who just gives off generally "creepy" vibes by being dishevelled and perhaps lacking in hygiene.

@loganb @_caswel @JCovetti Or perhaps men who might look at an attractive woman a bit too long but wouldn't actually violate or harass her in any way.
