Self-driving vehicles have the potential to operate with a “return-to-home” mode, acting as a form of shared family or household vehicle.  Additionally, new users (current nondrivers) are also expected to have access to personal transportation with self-driving vehicles.  The results of two recent studies indicate that both of these scenarios have significant potential to increase overall vehicle usage and mileage.

Attendees will learn:

  • Vehicle sharing could reduce ownership rates but also result in more miles for each vehicle.
  • Those do not drive or have a driver’s license are likely add significant additional mileage for self-driving vehicles.
  • Self-driving vehicles are likely to increase the demand for private road transportation by up to 11%.
