Will self-driving cars solve traffic congestion?

The cars will communicate with other self-driving cars and road network infrastructure, increasing reaction time, and maintaining a consistent speed and distance from other vehicles. Over all, the prediction is that autonomous vehicles will reduce traffic congestion . Meanwhile, individually-owned self-driving cars may contribute little to traffic congestion reduction. But shared self-driving cars may combat these problems and deliver the much-longed for free-flowing traffic. Shared shared self-driving cars coupled with transit could be one solution to cities’ traffic congestion problems.
