Special lanes for autonomous vehicles separate them from regular traffic, potentially improving safety and traffic flow. Proponents argue that dedicated lanes increase safety, enhance traffic efficiency, and encourage the adoption of autonomous technology. Opponents argue that it reduces road space for traditional vehicles and may not be justified given the current number of autonomous vehicles.
@9L4Z23BIndependent 7 days7D
Yes, but this needs to be a locally led initiative
No, autonomous vehicles shouldn't be allowed on public highways
@9NC45VKRepublican16hrs16H
No, they would fail for the same reasons H.O.V. lanes failed.
@Paculino 21hrs21H
Yes, but not at the expense of bus lanes, bike lanes, sidewalks, or pedestrianized areas.
@9N92GYS2 days2D
Yes, but only once self-driving vehicles form a majority of drivers
@9N8VZSC2 days2D
No, the cost to update roads would be too much for tax payers.
@9N7W6QB2 days2D
No, and regulate autonomous vehicles to begin with.
@9N6XZGY3 days3D
We need a case study on this before it is implemented.
@9N5K7CV4 days4D
Yes, only if autonomous vehicles are widely implemented and such infrastructure is necessary
@9N4YTQ74 days4D
Not yet. While autonomous vehicles are likely in the future the technology to make it useful isn't in place yet
@9N3QRTH4 days4D
No, the government should completely ban autonomous vehicles instead
@9FNXKJWLibertarian 4 days4D
City gov't should be free to design their streets as they see fit.
@JcawolfsonIndependent 4 days4D
No, but they should have special and noticeably different license plates to ensure public safety
@8T83KJZ 5 days5D
Maybe. Privatize the roads and let the market decide
@9N2FJTH5 days5D
Yes, but only after further research is done to see the impact of autonomous vehicles.
@9MYMGYN6 days6D
Yes, eventually, when the volume of autonomous vechicles is significant.
@9MXV7HQPeace and Freedom6 days6D
Yes but the companies that make them should be taxed for them and the people who buy them
@9MWX3381wk1W
Make autonomous vehicles illegal to be on the road.
@9MWPPS81wk1W
No, unless those lanes are for autonomous public transit vehicles like self-driving buses or trams.
@9MWD39GProgressive1wk1W
Eventually, once there is a significant amount of autonomous vehicles on the road
@9MW35WN1wk1W
No, autonomous vehicles should not be permitted on public roadways.
@9MTZNC41wk1W
Yes, but move slowly on designing such lanes until self-driving cars become a more ubiquitous presence on the road
@Levi-Blevins 1wk1W
Not until autonomous vehicles become more widespread
@9MRVDQD1wk1W
Yes, because it would make the autonomous vehicles a little safer.
@9MRMZ491wk1W
No, cities should ban autonomous vehicles until they are safer to operate.
@9MQ7LCM1wk1W
That would cost money and no municipality would be able to afford that.
@99M6G59Independent 1wk1W
No, and I’m skeptical about the viability of autonomous vehicles at the moment
@9MPXLG71wk1W
Yes, but only if the expansion of autonomous vehicles makes it necessary for safety.
@9MPNYMJ1wk1W
Yes, but only after autonomous vehicles have reached a critical mass in the consumer market.
@9MPDYZ31wk1W
Autonomous vehicles should be fully banned until there is record-able evidence that they are 100% safe at all times
Yes, but only when the technology improves or becomes more widespread
@9MNYC2G1wk1W
No, we should focus on public transportation instead.
@Doug1wk1W
Yes, Autonomous Vehicles should be on guided pathways not special lanes.
@9MMJ8DHIndependent 2wks2W
Not yet, but if the number of autonomous vehicles becomes comparable to the number of traditional vehicles, then yes.
@Dry550Independent 2wks2W
Yes, when a certain quota of autonomous vehicles have been made, not before, still focus on traditional vehicles
Yes, when it makes sense to once more testing is done to see if they are safe; at the same time it would make sense to have them driven near other cars to see if they can work in that environment
