I'm Carla Zoos, and today's show puts one high profile subject in the driver's seat.

This means autonomous vehicles, cars that do all of the work of handling themselves without any input from people.

Manufacturers worldwide are investing in the technology to make this happen, but right now full automation doesn't exist on American roads, at least not legally.

The carmaker Tesla offers both an autopilot and a full self driving capability package, but it says neither of them actually makes the vehicle fully self operating.

They're intended to be used with a completely attentive driver.

The company has investigated a couple incidents in which crashes occurred when the autopilot feature was reportedly enabled. 00:00:56.640 --> 00:01:3.060  So there are concerns about the safety of this technology, and that includes the fact that it's on Lee possible with computers. 00:01:3.100 --> 00:01:6.370  What if they lock up or need a reboot like your smartphone? 00:01:6.380 --> 00:01:7.400  What if they're hacked? 00:01:7.410 --> 00:01:15.280  Also, privacy advocates have sounded the alarm about your every movement and speed and destination being tracked and logged.

Who gets access to that information for today's show?

Though we're giving you a glimpse of a driverless ideal What could the future look like for a city filled with autonomous vehicles?

Assuming everything goes, his manufacturers and supporters of the technology hope it will Americans love their cars.

Getting my first car was one of the happiest days of my life, and I've loved driving ever since, especially fast cars.

Uh, yeah, that's not actually my car, but hey, look, this is my story, and I can dream if I want to.

But what if I'm part of the last generation to get excited about driving a car? 00:02:3.680 --> 00:02:11.130  I've spent the past year traveling the country, talking toa entrepreneurs, engineers and test drivers who are building the cars of tomorrow.

And when they imagine the future driving the car isn't part of it.

They envisioned roads full of cars driven by machines where traffic jams are no more, where the death rate by car accidents drops to zero.

The end of car ownership as we know it, even to the point of human driving.

One day becoming illegal, I asked them all the same thing.

What I found was really exciting, but also a bit shocking. 00:02:55.740 --> 00:03:1.720  Okay, so that's my guy out of this parking lot. 00:03:2.240 --> 00:03:5.850  I'm gonna engaging Self driving. 00:03:8.470 --> 00:03:10.930  Technically, we don't need a driver in the car.

So you and I are basically, in a way, just passengers Now.

Yes, we're test driving a car powered by autonomous vehicle startup drive a eye on the streets of Northern California.

It's one of several companies working toe utterly transform how we live.

This test car could be the prototype of an automobile that not only takes you out of the driver's seat but creates a future where you might not need to own a car at all.

At least that's what the people building him think ownership probably abandoned.

You mostly have cars that we summoned on our phone. 00:03:48.620 --> 00:04:1.150  The car become empty, tow us and pick us up, and we get inside for office or house, and it drives us straight to the restaurant, and there's no type basis of parking in a world self driving cars utopia in the future. 00:04:1.640 --> 00:04:14.130  The only vehicles operating the city are driverless electric emission list vehicles that they can position themselves in a state where you were I hailing one from our smartphone has one there.

Within a minute, we will look back and say, Wow, people own cars to get.

From this point of that point, eliminating car ownership would drastically change the way we shape our cities.

The thing I'm most excited about is the ability on the street to reallocate space away from the storage of vehicles Right now.

And I think we could literally close 30 40% of our streets.

You don't need cars on neighborhood streets anymore.

You just need them on the perimeter of your neighborhood.

All those parking facilities today get turned into residential space or parks or offices or restaurants. 00:04:56.850 --> 00:05:3.640  And we can kind of give back the city to the people who live in and take it away from the automobiles, right? 00:05:3.650 --> 00:05:11.450  I think that they, the quality of life and the opportunity to kind of re use that space is gonna be pretty magical.

The nation of muscle cars, NASCAR on open road.

You're gonna tell Americans they can't drive well, eventually.

Maybe that maybe a law in place that basically says 50 years from now humans cannot drive on public roads.

And if a human doesn't want to drive, likely Goto, a private car of ranch Betty, can basically drive to your heart's content.

Remember when we transition from horses to automobiles?

These car ranch is actually already exist.

Think of car companies that build high end sports cars that are meant to be driven by humans, not robots. 00:05:58.660 --> 00:06:1.180  They're already building driving courses around the country. 00:06:1.890 --> 00:06:8.770  And, yes, Paris fun as they sound Way opened in May 2015. 00:06:8.940 --> 00:06:13.560  You'll come in your meteo, your register and meet your driving coach and then driving.

We believe this this destination that we've created has got a long term future.

Portia knows that driverless technology is around the corner, but they still want people to love driving, even if they do less of it on public roads.

All right, let's get back to the real world.

The rise of car sharing service is has already made people accustomed to the idea of not owning a car today.

Human drivers pick us up when we use uber or lift. 00:06:57.200 --> 00:07:1.580  But that's not gonna last Aton of this ride sharing is absolutely coming. 00:07:2.030 --> 00:07:9.330  It is right around the corner, and you'll see it in pockets at first and slowly and surely you'll start to see these vehicles all over the place. 00:07:9.740 --> 00:07:15.750  There is an opportunity on a long enough timeline where we may have a fleet that is fully autonomous.

As you start to see people adopt to transportation as a service.

The hope here is that cars will car ownership will slowly decline.

The ripple effect of automation on our cities will be felt beyond just cars.

Drones will roam the skies, making deliveries and robots like this one already in Washington, D.

May bring food orders to your door very soon.

In the nation's capital, Starship Technologies delivers food by an automated robots. 00:08:1.340 --> 00:08:2.080  Hello, robot. 00:08:3.000 --> 00:08:5.050  I'd like a sandwich, man. 00:08:7.340 --> 00:08:12.100  All right, so I just had a robot deliver me a sandwich on the streets of Washington, D.

It's just in the trial phase right now, but in the future it could be a lot more common robots, drones deliver your hoagie right to your house I got to do is push a button on a nap and you got yourself a sandwich.

What will happen when all these robots get better at our jobs than we are?

Okay, you heard phrases like eliminating car ownership and right around the corner.

But you also heard words like prototype and test car. 00:08:55.190 --> 00:09:1.150  To be clear, experts say, a cityscape with fully self driving cars is likely to be decades away. 00:09:1.330 --> 00:09:5.640  And whether this would work in the country is another question entirely for the present. 00:09:5.650 --> 00:09:10.920  Even with all the technology available to US driver's air still Autonoma mostly in control.

And even if driverless cars seemed the technological next step, the intelligence of smart cars is still artificial.

 So smart design will have to take the driver's seat if people are to take a backseat role on the road ahead.
