States Must Prepare For Human Drivers Mixing It Up With Autonomous Vehicles

Forbes - Tech

Think about autonomous vehicles as disrupters. They will disrupt everything we currently take for granted about how we get from here to there. This is obvious the further one gets into a new report, Autonomous Vehicles Meet Human Drivers: Traffic Safety Issues for States, prepared for the Governors Highway Safety Association (G.H.S.A.). Even though the report is written for state Departments of Transportation, Departments of Motor Vehicles, and State Highway Safety Offices, it has implications for all of us since -- even if you don't plan to buy a driverless vehicle -- you will be sharing the road with them. It's a very readable report, not technical, and its author, James Hedlund, calls it "AV 101".
