Back to my original transportation technology, blue paint

Years ago I attacked this problem of efficient delivery with regard to deliver bot, and concluded the key technology was painting delivery lanes.  We have a simple rule, do not impede the deliver bots too much, mostly stay out of their lane..

For the suburbs, this is great, it takes up little space, an bots can avoid harm humans as necessary since the liability to allow flow is on the human.  So, blue line the deliver bots, if the humans jam the bots, the bot can phone home for help.  Any american suburb can do this trick, include taxi bot, and auto bots that obey the rules.

In the market dynamic, folks who impede will debater folks who get deliveries.  The overlap between those two groups is likely to be a majority. This simple rule change is actually a great, real time experiment.

Here is a really good mix, bot lanes and bike lanes.  Bikers would love to know the bots are legally extremely careful, and efficient.  Great bike riding lanes, and it is up to the biker to get around the bot and move on, since the bot always slows for the biker.
