SAFE hosted a conversation between leading autonomous vehicle (AV) analysts to mark the launch of “Fostering Economic Opportunity through Autonomous Vehicle Technology”, a SAFE paper that addresses how AVs can redress imbalances for low-income communities, whose options are limited by inadequacies in today’s transportation.

Alisyn Malek, Executive Director of the Commission on the Future of Mobility, moderated the conversation on transportation’s role in limiting economic opportunities for millions of Americans and how AVs and autonomous transit can be part of the solution, which included:
