Road AheadAUTOMATED VEHICLES
Automated vehicles (AV) promise to make transportation safer, cheaper and faster. 的y spark the opportunity to reduce road congestion and fuel consumption and ultimately increase productivity.
Where and how automated technology can be implemented is endless. Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) can deliver medicine to people stranded by natural disasters. Self-driving trucks will create faster and cheaper delivery. Automated vehicles can fight wildfires in situations unsafe for humans.
Automated vehicles also pave the way for economic opportunity. 的 “passenger economy” represents a $7 trillion global opportunity by 2050 and by 2023, companies will spend $255 billion in capital expenditures for electronic vehicle R&D.
This large-scale market and societal disruption demands industry-driven validation of safety standards, policies and technology solutions.
Arizona sets the pace forself-driving car innovation
Arizona is the proving ground for this transformative innovation. In 2015, Governor Ducey signed an executive order supporting the testing and operation of self-driving vehicles. Arizona's reputation as an AV-friendly state with innovation-minded support, year-round sunny days and dry weather, enables an exceptional environment for testing and development.
