Cities are far too car-centric now. Though I expect the anti-techie/anti-shuttle NIMBYs will be out to "save their parking spots and public rights of way".

There's an easy solution to the "blocking the door" problem: convert on-street parking spaces into parking for dockless bikes and scooters. (Yes, that means building garages to offset the lost on-street parking.)

If you dedicate clearly marked space for parking bikes and scooters, then people will try to do the right thing.

Google has had a utopic bike-sharing system on its campus for years (at great cost -- the bikes keep getting stolen). It would be great to get something like that in the "real world". I think JUMP bikes is closest, but there aren't nearly enough bike racks in SF for JUMP to fully roll out with the ubiquity of the Google bikes.
