The commute of the future is drastically less commuting in general. Either because more people will telecommute, or because more people will live closer to work (urban revitalization), or perhaps because fewer people will need to work at all (basic income).

I'm also somewhat worried about what the decline of individual car ownership will mean for the ever increasing power of surveillance that governments and corporations have on our lives. Rideshare apps will probably track every single ride whether you like it or not, a hundred times more accurately and comprehensively than cameras on streets. More and more public transportation networks are also transitioning to electronic payment systems that can record all of your trips and mine that data; gone are the days of anonymous paper tickets. And I wouldn't be surprised if bicycle renting services of the future equipped all their bikes with always-on trackers.

Sure, we already carry iTrackers all over the place with us, but this is a whole new level of virtually unavoidable surveillance. My parents' old car might have been expensive to maintain and massively harmful to the environment, but at least it was too dumb to report your every movement to Big Brother (especially on cameraless rural roads).
