We know…
» Vehicle automation is coming
» It will be disruptive

There are two cri3cal markets from a social, planning and regulatory perspec3ve SAE
0 No automa)on
1 Driver assists Individual controls No feet
2 Par)al automa)on
Combined controls No hands
3 Condi)onal automa)on
Driver monitors No eyes
4 High automa)on
Driver dispensable No body
5 Full automa)on
Market 1 Driver-‐in Semi-‐automated
Market 2 Driver-‐out Full automa)on

The two markets will compete for users, access, infrastructure, subsidies and urban ideologies
Market 1: Semi-‐automated, driver-‐in Market 2: Fully-‐automated, driver-‐out
Owned, personal, family Public, taxi, shuDle, bus
Business-‐as-‐usual Disrup)ve
Rapid diffusion Slow diffusion
More: conges)on, parking, sprawl Less: conges)on, parking, sprawl
No barrier to diffusion; normal next car purchase; no social change
Barrier: choose rides over ownership; access anxiety; large social change
Gov: react, adjust, manage Gov: act, prepare, innovate, leverage
Will dominate in 2020s Might dominate aYer 2035

Range Anxiety vs. Access Anxiety
Range Anxiety Battery storage issue Anxiety that my EV might not reach all the DISTANCES I want to reach.
Access Anxiety Operational design domain issue Anxiety that my AV might not be able to go to all the PLACES I want to go to.

Barriers to deployment of full automa3on ©

iles Strategic
“[fully-automated] cars remain a long way from commercial reality,” [Nissan’s Carlos] Ghosn said ... “They are suitable only for tightly controlled road environments, at slow speeds, and face a regulatory minefield.”
[Gordon-‐Bloomfield, “Nissan Changes Expecta?ons, Timeline for Autonomous Drive Technology.” July 2014]

Q: What will happen to car ownership (and urban density) when…
• EV range exceeds 300 miles? • Solar becomes cheaper than oil? • Vehicle charging takes under 15 minutes? • Market 1 (SAE Level 3) vehicles become highly reliable? • Market 1 vehicle prices approach current average prices? • In-city housing prices are out of reach for most families? • It is increasingly palatable to live farther out of the city? • It is less attractive to live in the city?

Reliability and affordability
Car makers promise “self-driving cars” for 2020-2021 These will be Level 3 vehicles. If not highly reliable and affordable then, they will be soon after.

Savannah theory of happiness
“…people who live in more densely populated areas tend to report less satisfaction with their life overall. ‘The higher the population density of the immediate environment, the less happy’ the survey respondents said they were.”

Many posi3ve indicators for sprawl
ü EV range exceeds 300 miles? ü Solar becomes cheaper than oil? ü Vehicle charging takes under 15 minutes? ü Market 1 (SAE Level 3) vehicles become highly reliable? ü Market 1 vehicle prices approach current average prices? ü In-city housing prices are out of reach for most families? ü It is increasingly palatable to live farther out of the city? ü It is less attractive to live in the city?

Final thoughts
» Driving will continue past mid century
» World VKT will quadruple over the next 40-45 years
» Significant complexity with mixed driving environments

Everyone involved with planning the transporta?on infrastructure for the next 40 years should download and read this very important study.
