They could be replaced with bikes, but won't be. We know this because bikes have been here the whole time. We even know why bikes aren't being used. Because cars outcompete them in volume, speed, safety and comfort for the driver.

When you're looking to solve problems you have to look at people's behavior and motivations. Drones are feasible replacements in a way that cars are not.

Edit: Just so I don't get any more of the same reply, I fully agree that the infrastructure we have that is built around cars instead of bikes is what makes my comment true. American cities are not about to be redesigned, so it's a choice between new ideas like this and the status quo.

I'm certain they don't want this battle. The last thing the government wants is a ruling saying that refusing to show up for work when they stop paying you is not a strike, and is 100% legal.

The only thing keeping people coming to work now is the uncertainty over the legality of staying home.

Yes, and we're not moving towards replacing the infrastructure of American cities, so it's necessary to explore other options. That's not some sort of gotcha.

Will you be hiring in more locations in the U.S. in the near future?
