A new report predicts that self-driving cars will make ride-hailing so cheap that it will transform the automobile market. By 2030, the report predicts, 95 percent of passenger miles traveled in the U.S. could be happening in on-demand, autonomous electric cars owned by fleets rather than individuals. That means the average American family could save around $5,600 a year on transportation.
