If those rental cars are going to be around, and if people want taxi apps because they don't own a car then there's two applications for self-driving tech.

Public transit is great, but it works best for dense areas along busy routes, and there's always people who want to go direct without transferring, or walking to a station. Suburbs and rural areas won't be relying on public transit, the activity is too low.

Self-driving cars lead to fewer deaths than human drivers, they will eventually be cheaper to insure than human drivers, and summoning a taxi without a person will be cheaper than one with one.

The US Government did not say aliens exist. A former military officer said "nonhuman" biological material was in one of the craft they downed. That could mean someone put a monkey or a dog in a test vehicle, it could mean a bird flew into the thing.

Even if he was saying it's aliens, testifying to congress is not the same thing as the government itself claiming aliens exist. They are reporting to the government, not making statements on behalf of the government.
