  • the passenger carrier and vehicle tractor combine together and passengers ride on passenger carrier for traveling.
  • the vehicle tractor disconnects with passenger carrier and auto self-drives to service stations or other customers.
  • This art decreases the idle vehicle engines number globally and customers spend less money to buy passenger carrier compared with buy the whole vehicle.
  • this disclosure gives a method and system for the auto self-driving vehicle tractor renting service, which include the membership registration, customers choose monthly or yearly pay service or base on distance to charge etc.
  • FIG.l is a perspective view illustrating an aspect of a transportation system in combine configuration.
  • FIG. 2A is a perspective view illustrating an aspect of the auto self-driving vehicle tractor of a transportation system.
  • FIG. 2B is a perspective view illustrating an aspect of the passenger carrier of the transportation system.
  • FIG BA - 3C are perspective view illustrating some configurations of the vehicle tractor.
  • FIG. 4 is a perspective view illustrating the passenger carrier with front wheel.
  • FIG. 5 illustrates a system for renting the vehicle tractor for traveling .
  • FIG. 6 illustrates a register vehicle tractor membership system
  • FIG. 7 illustrates a vehicle tractor payment system, which includes monthly or yearly payment packages and distance payment system.
  • a new transportation system includes an auto self-driving vehicle tractor and a passengers carrier.
  • the auto self-driving vehicle tractor has auto self-driving system, and may connect with passengers carrier for traveling, and the vehicle tractor may separate with passenger carrier, and travel alone.
  • FIG 1. illustrates the new transportation system 10 comprise the auto self-driving vehicle tractor 1 and the passenger carrier 2. A few legs 4 may be deposited beneath the passenger carrier.
