I recently went on holiday and cars are so huge, clunky, and rule ridden... and impossible to use in the middle of a city with crazy no turn rules everywhere and streets that make no sense, that we ended up walking everywhere, so every day I ended up exhausted. I was thinking that we should have robots as an urban transport solution that's more simple and elegant than a car, which is confined to roads. I think if we built nice big robots like the ones in that boxing bots movie that had a nice backpack attachment so we could ride around on them that would be awesome. It would be like being a baby again! Also, they could stand in cues for us, and reach high things. Also, we could pretend we were halflings being carried around by uraks or something. It could be awesome. No one would mess with your robot if it looked like an orc.
