The future of driving could be letting the car drive itself and General Motors is moving one step closer to that future. Today I speak with Jeff Miller, General Motors Assistant Chief Engineer of Super Cruise to talk all about the hands free technology and why it is different from self driving. Plus, AAA’s releases their annual cost of new car ownership figures and why no one might ever receive the extension of the federal tax to buy an electric vehicle. All that and more on the Driving You Crazy Podcast.

How badly do we want the hyperloop? This is the question raised in an article by Tom Hartsfield, a PHD physicist living in Los Alamos, New Mexico. Tom wrote an article in BigThink.com called, “Elon Musk’s Hyperloop is possible. How badly do we want it?” It is a fascinating look at the challenges and complexity of the vacuum tube. Also, my observations from a recent trip to Chicago & South Bend and an email I received that was a bit off the mark. All that and more on the Driving You Crazy Podcast.

General Motors is going full speed ahead with the move to all electric cars. One of the issues we have talked about here is the lack of charging infrastructure. To increase access to charging and enable long-distance electric travel, GM and the Pilot Company you know them as the Pilot Flying J Travel Centers…. are collaborating on a national DC fast charging network. To talk more about it and some of the challenges they are facing is Travis Hester, General Motors Chief Electric Vehicle Officer. Also, I talk about an article that says free transit makes people drive less isn’t accurate. All that and more on the Driving You Crazy Podcast.

It’s a special episode, number 250! I really can’t believe that I’ve published this many episodes. Thanks for all the support. Imagine trying to start a rideshare business in this climate. That is what Will Coleman is doing. Will started the rideshare company Alto in Dallas and Alto has a bit of a different model than Uber and Lyft so I wanted to know more about his journey in this business and what makes Alto different from Uber and Lyft for you and me. And a special congratulations to this show for reaching episode number 250! All that and more on the Driving You Crazy Podcast.

Are you a fan of roundabouts? This episode I speak with arguably the roundabout king of the United States. Mayor James Brainard of Carmel Indiana has installed over 140 roundabouts in his town transforming the way his citizens get around. He also says his roads are safer than anywhere else because of the roundabouts. We talk all about that plus what do you think are the top casual crash factors for young drivers? I have the list.

We’ve talked a bunch about the increasing number of people walking and biking who are being killed or injured in the roads. Today I speak with Dr Kelcie Ralph, Associate Professor of Transportation Planning and Policy at Rutgers University where she studies transportation, safety, and public opinion. I talk with Dr Ralph about that issue with pedestrian deaths as well as talk to her about her take that local news outlets that cover traffic collisions can affect perceptions of blame and responsibility among readers, listeners, or viewers. Also, a recent guest, Andrew Levy CEO of Avelo Airlines, told me they were looking to expand but they are doing just the opposite. Also the tale of the scooter vigilante in Denver.
