Detroit. Motor City. An editorial board at the Detroit News isn’t keen on rapidly legislating self driving cars because:

  • Market Drivers.to develop the right policies we need clear signals from the market about what aspects of self driving cars will win the day
  • Infrastructure Needs. need to ensure that the legislature creates the infrastructure to maintain Dedicated Short Range Communications radios that communicate between self driving cars and the infrastructure
  • Public Private Partnerships. state should seek first to encourage partnerships that would speed development so legislators can see how the market adapts to this new wave of smart vehicles
