Picture a world where your car sits idle 95% of the time, costs you $9,000 a year, and has a 1-in-100 chance of killing you during your lifetime. Sounds dystopian? That's the world we live in right now. We've normalized a transportation system so broken that future generations will study it the way we marvel at bloodletting in medieval medicine. The average American household spends more on cars than on food, healthcare, or clothing-for a machine that spends 23 hours a day parked. Meanwhile, 1.3 million people die annually in traffic accidents, with human error causing over 90% of these preventable tragedies. We're brilliant at building cars but terrible at driving them. This paradox sits at the heart of the autonomous vehicle revolution-a transformation that promises to save $4 trillion annually in the U.S. alone while fundamentally reshaping how we live, work, and move through our cities.
