Hotspur🏳️🌈🇺🇦During this morning's presentations, a fellow from the WV state DOT gushed about how he wanted to bring autonomous vehicles to West Virginia. I probably owe a ton of money to the hotel which sustained damages when my eyebrows shot through the roof.
Later, over lunch, folks from the various systems were all rolling their eyes and chuckling behind their hands at this hubris. "That's the Morrisey administration for you," one told me, amidst much head-shaking. At one point the guy had said it would be a perfect solution for senior rides....my lunch companions talked about how oldsters would want to socialize with the drivers, and I pointed out that most oldsters wouldn't want to go anywhere near an autonomous vehicle, and neither would I.
