It's starting in California where there are a meaningful number of high earners who are spending hours per day in 4 lane bumper to bumper traffic.

Having actual autonomy during those hours is still shit. But it's a hell of a lot less shit than the tedium of the high attention requirements of sitting in traffic at a crawl.
