Yes suburban is included however I strongly believe that the average suburban dweller will be more than catered for with self-driving taxis once we hit saturation point. During the service growth years it will probably be inconvenient but as soon as we reach maturity owning a car will be the inconvenience.
Sure, but I'd agree with karpodiem that this is likely decades from now, i.e., more than 20 years before half of suburban households drop their car for a autonomous taxi service. Computers took over a decade to really penetrate. 10% of people owned a computer 20 years ago, but no uses a self-driving car today. Further, the financial and regulator roadblocks are much larger for cars than computers.
It will take a while but perhaps now that everyone has a smartphone and is used to technology/ understands it's benefits, adoption rates will speed up.
