    I think you’re wrong on this one.

    Currently uber does not own anything. Repair costs are for the drivers. Buying a car is for the drivers.

    If they are not profitable now, replacing driver’s “wage” will only make it more expensive.

      I’m not wrong, it’s on their website:

      Driving autonomous forward

      At Uber, it’s our mission to reimagine the way the world moves for the better—and it’s clear that autonomous vehicles (AVs) will play a part in our future. With that in mind, we have been building Uber for the road ahead.

      Then they go onto describe how they are going to use driverless vehicles for personal mobility, delivery, and freight.
