Episode notes

Cities will start responding by putting limitations on the urban cor so that there is only autonomous vehicles alowed within, let's say, an urban corps a. So congestion pricing can work, but in that in scenario, it's also likely that privately on vehicles capable of autonomous operation inside a jail fence would switch automatically to autonomous control.

Big moves raise strategic questions this week, as Mobileye starts testing in New York, Aurora heads to Wall Street by way of Reid Hoffman's SPAC, and a Financial Times trend piece raises questions about the relationship of ADAS to AV strategy.
