Hey all - I made this thread in response to an article that I came across in the Toronto Start today:
Uber's self-driving cars hit Toronto streets — in manual mode
I understand that this tech isn't specifically public transportation or infrastructure, however Ontario has green-light 7 companies to start testing autonomous vehicles (Uber, the University of Waterloo, the Erwin Hymer Group, QNX, Continental, X-matik Inc., and Magna).
Most likely, a vast majority of these tests will take place in cities like Toronto. This thread could be a valuable place to discuss the impacts that this disruptive technology could have on Toronto, and how Toronto-specific(ish) obstacles like streetcars and the snow could be overcome. Also, as companies like Uber move to real autonomous testing later this year, we can track their progress here.
