The Case for Autonomous Vehicles in Goods Transportation and Logistics
This white paper provides an in-depth exploration of the role of autonomous vehicles (AVs) in goods transportation and logistics. It presents a comprehensive overview of AV applications in off-road goods movement, last-mile delivery, mid-mile logistics, and long-haul transport, while addressing the key challenges and opportunities for adoption. By presenting real-world use cases and industry examples, […]
J.D. Power 2024 U.S. Mobility Confidence Index (MCI) Study
The J.D. Power 2024 U.S. Mobility Confidence Index (MCI) Study brings together two organizations with an aligned mission to understand consumer knowledge and acceptance of fully automated, self-driving vehicles. Each organization has extensive independent research experience providing consumers, government, and industry with a data-driven comprehension of consumer behaviors. In this collaboration, the partners leverage each […]
Safer, Cleaner, More Equitable: Seizing the Opportunities of Highly Automated Vehicles
This white paper aims to provide a holistic perspective on the benefits of autonomous mobility solutions, which operate without a human driver (also known as “self driving” or “autonomous vehicles”), while also considering the status quo of this technology, its benefits and its challenges. This paper presents and describes the most relevant use cases for […]
Unlocking a 21st Century Mobility System
This seminal report from SAFE’s Coalition for Reimagined Mobility (ReMo) aims to reset the narrative around transportation innovation on the premise that bold action and coordinated commitment among a diverse set of stakeholders is necessary to unlock the potential of mobility enabling technologies that benefit society and the planet at-large and improve people’s daily lives. The report […]
Whitepaper: How AVs are shaping the future of transportation
In a post-COVID world, public transportation systems across the United States have had to navigate an increasing number of challenges ranging from filling first- and last-mile gaps to staffing and budget cuts. May Mobility’s autonomous vehicles offer a means of support for many of these issues, which can ultimate result in increased equity and long […]

Xiaopeng Li, is a member of PAVE’s Academic Advisory Council and a professor of civil and environmental engineering at UW–Madison. In this short video, Xiaopeng explains what’s involved in getting a car to drive without a human behind the wheel. Li’s Connected Autonomous Transportation Systems (CATS) Lab works on its own self-driving vehicle. Note: When […]
AV Laws – Insurance Institute for Highway Safety & Highway Loss Data Institute
This material has been prepared for general information purposes only. It is not guaranteed to be current and should be independently verified. Do not rely on it when considering how a law may apply to your circumstances. States have begun developing legal frameworks for self-driving vehicles, but widespread deployment is still a long way off. […]
Case Study: Electric Shared Autonomous Vehicles Could Significantly Reduce Noise, Air Pollution
The latest case study from SAFE’s Center for Automated Transportation Technology (CATT) shows that modest deployment of electric, shared autonomous vehicles (SAVs) would result in noise and air pollution reductions, especially in disadvantaged communities, where these impacts are often disproportionately concentrated. The case study, “Environmental and Equity Implications of Electric, Shared Autonomous Vehicles (SAVs) in Urban Transportation: […]
When trucks drive themselves with Chris Urmson of Aurora – How I Built This with Guy Raz
Chris Urmson is one of the founding fathers of the autonomous vehicle industry. He participated in three DARPA self-driving vehicle challenges before joining the team that launched Google’s self-driving car project, which later became Waymo. Eventually though, Chris saw an opportunity to scratch an entrepreneurial itch and bring his expertise to an industry that was […]
