Hmm, food delivery seems like the last thing that needs to autonomous driving given there needs to be someone to pick up the food and to deliver it the last few feet to the waiting customer.

People will meet the vehicle outside if it saves them money.

In the very long term. You’re going to be rifling through bags looking for your order.
