Ben Kelley, a leading authority on automotive safety, is a member of the Board of Directors for the Public Health Advocacy Institute. Recently he published a scholarly article and op-ed discussing the safety implications of autonomous, i.e., “self-driving,” vehicles.
The article appeared in the Journal of Public Health Policy. JPHP is co-published by another of our board members, Anthony Robbins. The article examines key safety issues in long transformation to autonomous vehicles.
The op-ed appeared in the excellent investigative journalism site, FairWarning.org and, in a shorter form, in the Oregonian. It considers the impact of Trump Administration policies that may impact the safety of autonomous vehicles.
