ITEANZ Automated Vehicles Seminar

Institute of Transport Engineers, Australia and New Zealand Section

presents a free seminar on

Automated Vehicles: Understanding the impact of disruptive change

Partly automated vehicles are already on Australian roads, with Electronic Stability Control mandatory for new cars and features like Adaptive Cruise Control and Lane Keeping Assist increasingly available. Manufacturers around the world are working hard to introduce fully automated vehicles by 2020. The implications of this on the future of transport are far-reaching and transport professionals will need to start preparing for a future that may look very different from today.
