Alex and Ed are back from their cross-country adventure in India, giving Damon a chance to understand why (and how) you drive a $4,000 Renault across a developing nation. Plus, what lessons can be learned about deploying AVs outside the comfortable climes of California.

Dr. Maya Rockeymoore, president and CEO of Global Policy Solutions, sits down with Alex and Ed to discuss the effects of automation on transportation workers across the country.

The trio tackle the regulatory hurdles and continued confusion surrounding AVs, and how companies and legislators can be better stewards of the technology.
