GM Buying Self-Driving Tech Startup for More Than $1 Billion
D. Patrick Mar 11,”General Motors GM 1.43% this morning announced that it will acquire Cruise Automation, a San Francisco-based developer of autonomous vehicle technology. No financial terms were disclosed, but Fortune has learned from a source close to the situation that the deal is valued at “north of $1 billion,” in a combination of cash and stock.
Talks between the two companies originally related
to a strategic investment by GM in Cruise, which was
planning to raise a new round of venture capital
funding. But that quickly morphed into an
acquisition discussion with the entire agreement
getting hashed out in less than six weeks. [Read more](http://fortune.com/2016/03/11/gm-buying-self-driving-tech-startup-for-more-than-1-billion/)Hmmmm...That

Primers On The Business Innovation And Disruption Enabled By Driverless Cars
C. Mui, Mar 10, ““Baloney” and “nonsense” captured the zeitgeist of many reactions to my early articles on the potential of Google’s self-driving car program. But, that was in 2013, when many viewed driverless cars as nothing more than a high-tech dalliance by Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin. …To facilitate an ongoing discussion (and help to address search engine limitations), this post will provide an ongoing, chronological compendium of my articles on the business and societal innovation and disruption enabled by driverless cars. Happy reading, and I’d welcome your comments. Read more and Comment Hmmmm…23

Driverless Trucks - Background and views on Truck Platooning
Mar 2016, “The correct term for the proposed system to be trialled is not ‘driverless trucks’, but ‘platooning’. This is where a series of vehicles use technology to enable drivers to move more closely to each other in convoy than would be safe if he or she were not using them. The UK government has agreed to a limited trial of platooning on a stretch of the M6 in Cumbria, a portion of UK motorway that is relatively quiet with larger sections between junctions….” Read moreHmmmm…I hear the arguments about truck platooning; however, the value of platooning can only be captured if there is a substantive chance that vehicles so equipped will find ech other sufficiently often in their normal traffic movements to make a difference. There is one place where platooning would be useful for a substantial portion (~25%) of their daily travels: The 3,000 buses in trans-Hudson service! Alain

Long-Haul Sweatshops
A. Balay, Mar 9, "...A big part of the problem is
that when it comes to long-haul trucking, the

THE ROAD NOT TAKEN: How we found (and lost) the dream of Personal Rapid Transit
A. Robertson, Feb 10 , Feb. “…Half a century after its heyday, the Alden StaRRcar clearly wasn’t made for its world. It looks like a white flatiron with wheels or a sleek, plastic bullet, dwarfed by the regal sedans of 1960s Detroit. It belongs in one of Buckminster Fuller’s domed cities, a vehicle for traveling under the geodesics of a bubble-topped Manhattan. Its future wasn’t one of highways, but of narrow cement tracks looping gracefully between city and suburb, connecting increasingly alienated parts of the American landscape…
Once considered a
key to solving urban
blight, the StaRRcar
was part of a public
transit revolution
that never was — but
one that would help
launch one of the
weirdest and most
politicized public
infrastructure
experiments of the
20th century. It's
an old idea that
today, in an age of
self-driving cars,
seems by turns
impractically retro
and remarkably
prescient...
PRT's invention is
attributed to a
transportation
expert named Donn
Fichter, but the
central idea was
conceived, remixed,
and adapted by many
in the 1950s and
1960s. While the
details varied, the
prototypical PRT
system was a network
of narrow guideways
populated by small
passenger pods. When
commuters arrived,
they would hit a
button to select a
destination, calling
one of the pods like
a taxi. Then,
instead of running
on a set line, the
pod would use
guideways like a
freeway system,
routing around
stations in order to
take passengers
directly to their
final stop.
The system was
designed to be
everything that
existing public
transportation
wasn't. Pods would
carry only as many
people as an average
car, guaranteeing a
nearly private ride.
Riders wouldn't need
to follow a
timetable or wait
for other people to
enter and exit the
system. Because the
pods would only be
dispatched on
demand, cities could
run service to many
low-traffic areas
without worrying
about waste. There
were no drivers to
train or pay, and
the pods could run
quietly on
electrical power
instead of with
fossil fuels...
Multiple plans for
personal rapid
transit fell
through, whether
because of budget
problems, logistical
issues, or political
power struggles....
And as in the '60s,
we're talking about
whether self-driving
vehicles could spell
the end of private
cars...."[Read more](THE%20ROAD%20NOT%20TAKEN:%20How%20we%20found%20%28and%20lost%29%20the%20dream%20of%20Personal%20Rapid%20Transit)Hmmmm...A
must read.
Pretty much as I
remember it. I
lived much of
it, including
designing 10,000
station, 10,000
mile PRT
networks that
could serve all
of New Jersey's
needs for
personal
mobility. The
good news was
that the
area-wide
systems would
provide great
mobility for
all. The bad
news: No viable
way to start.
The best
starting places
could each be
readily served
by conventional
systems with no
technology
risk. Without a
place to start,
PRT never got a
chance to
flourish in the
vast areas that
are un-servable
by conventional
technology.
Moreover, PRT
needed the
diversion of
public sector
capital funds
that weres already in the back pocket of those pedaling the
conventional
technologies.
Consequently,
the personal
auto has
reigned on.
Today is different. With PRT, even the first vehicle needed a couple of stations and interconnecting guideway (and all of the discussion and heartache was about the location and cost of those initial stations and guideway). With autonomous taxis sharing
existing
roads, one can
begin with a
single vehicle
capable of
serving many
existing
places without
needing to
pay-for/justify
any
infrastructure.
That is today's fundamental
opportunity,
in contrast to
PRT's
monumental
infrastructure
burden even
for one
vehicle.
That's why
aTaxis are
destined to
finally deliver
PRT's utopian
mobility to all
and
substantially
transform our
cities and
suburbs. Alain [Vancouver councillor wants city to prepare for driverless cars](http://www.vancouversun.com/news/vancouver+city+councillor+wants+study+impact+driverless+cars/11726263/story.html) T.
