Earlier this year at the ThinkTransit Conference, attendees were lucky enough to experience a demo of an autonomous vehicle. But, it wasn’t just attendees. Paul Comfort, VP of Business Development at Trapeze Group, took advantage of the opportunity and sat down with some of the top transit leaders to discuss autonomous vehicles.

Lauren Skiver, GM/CEO of SunLine Transit, noted that transit agencies are in the transportation business, which includes walking, biking, scooters, buses, trains, etc. Skiver added that autonomous vehicles would become part of transit agencies, not bring about the end of them.
