How autonomous vehicles will change the way live
Q: Would you envision roads being designated 100% autonomous like express lanes for bottleneck-free movement?
There is consideration of technology lanes and reserved parts of the network for autonomous vehicles to ensure safety during rollout and to manage the transition while drivers share the roads with automated systems.
