Much of the technology for the driverless car is in place today and a great deal more is in development. We feature a number of articles from various sources about the long drive to autonomous vehicles, and the dominant theme is safety.
Columnist Jeff Schlesinger’s article ‘The Race for the Driverless Car Accelerates’ gives us an excellent review of where we are today. He says, “Fleet managers should embrace this fast-approaching technology. With safety as one of the top, if not the top, priority for all fleet managers, and the increased press of driverless vehicles, questions will surely arise as to the short- and long-term plans for the company’s fleet policy to adopt this technology.”
We are a media sponsor for the International Fleet Meeting: Outstanding speakers and excellent networking for people who work with multinational fleets. March 8th in Geneva, Switzerland. What a venue!
