Flying Cars? The Future of Transportation

Driverless Cars: Coming Soon to a Road near You?

12:00 pm - 1:00 pm MDT on Monday, July 1, 2013

(Tickets Required) The growth of automobile transportation has seemingly occurred without much disruptive change to the system popularized by Henry Ford. While this mobility system provides considerable personal freedom and enables substantial economic activity, it has serious side effects in terms of safety, energy, the environment, land use, traffic congestion, time use, and equality of access. It is now possible to supply better mobility experiences at radically lower cost to consumers and society. This opportunity results from combining connected, coordinated, shared, driverless, and tailored vehicles to create a spontaneous, responsive, and sustainable mobility system. What must be done to realize what is within our grasp?
