That's what Blowtorch theory predicts, it notes three stages of black hole formation:
- direct collapse after the big bang. Those supermassive black holes now from the center of galaxies and are the earliest and simplest form of how universes reproduced
- stellar collapse, requires the formation of stars, but those can be much more plentyfull than previous supermassive direct collapse black holes, so many more universes will have those
- black holes created by technology. Since black holes are incredibly efficient at converting mass to energy, in a universe that has the capability to form intelligent life, this life will eventually find a way to harness black holes as an energy source. In doing so they would create even more tiny black holes (maybe to power spaceships?), so such universes would form the most offspring.
With computerized control and a comms link between the vehicles, you could probably have one vehicle follow 1m behind another, so they are effectively a train. If you still have a driver at all, you only need one in the front vehicle.
I don't think you could do that for CVLR specifically as it's not segregated from traffic and the second car would have to react individually to vehicles, pedestrians, roundabouts, etc.
If it's really just 1m behind, it doesn't need to respond individually to anything except pedestrians. And you can solve that with some extensible tapes that actually do connect the vehicles to prevent pedestrians walking between them.
Linking multiple units means making the stations longer. A more likely scenario is to deploy more units and deal with staffing by migrating to autonomous operation.
Avocado on the other hand grows like a charm.
