The chief innovation officer, an increasingly common business title around the US, for Sacramento says that "plans are still in place however to bring autonomous technology to the area for testing and implementation." This is a priority for the mayor and the city is in discussions with lots of AV companies, though only car companies and others testing AV cars are listed in the Capital Public Radio news piece.
Maybe AVs will help the Kings. Their record so far this season, only one game in, is zero wins and one loss, to the Houston Rockets.

No word on whether this design will be adopted or whether Transport for London or any other UK transit agency is planning on supplementing big red buses - AV or otherwise - with small shuttle vehicles.
Interesting update! The potential of autonomous vehicles (AVs) in both Sacramento and the UK shows just how transformative this technology could be for urban mobility. While Sacramento has ambitious plans to bring AV technology into their city, it's clear that there's still a lot of coordination needed before we see it implemented fully. The sleek design by Jonny Culkin is an exciting look into the future of transit, offering a refreshing alternative to traditional systems.
ReplyDeleteAs these discussions evolve, it’s important to remember that innovation can shape not just our cities but the way we live. Just like how areas like DagenhamEstateAgents are adapting to new technologies in real estate, cities like Sacramento and London are looking for ways to integrate cutting-edge solutions to improve daily life.
