The 2020s will see the introduction of one of the most profoundly transformative technologies for decades: the driverless car. In the world we have inhabited for the past 60 years, most adults own cars that they drive daily, which they then park in their garages, front yards or on the street, or in car parks when they go to the shops or the train station or the airport.
They arrange repairs, they put in fuel and water and oil, they pay car taxes and they buy insurance. Over the next decade, all of this might end, with profound implications for the way we live, but also for public policy across a wide range of areas. Fortunately to discuss but a few of these issues, the IEA's Digital Manager Darren Grimes was joined by Andrew Lilico, Executive Director and Principal of Europe Economics, who, in 2014, was part of a study on the topic.
