Potential Secondary Effects of Increasing Automation
Autonomous vehicles (AVs) promise safer streets and greater mobility—but the road to full automation comes with significant risks. In ITE’s latest technical brief, Potential Secondary Effects of Increasing Automation, authors Dan Hennessey, Mallory Scates, and Jimmy Jessup examine how Level 5 AVs could reshape land use, impact transit, worsen congestion, and introduce complex equity and cybersecurity challenges. This brief explores how AVs may alter the built environment and transport systems—potentially intensifying sprawl, undermining public transit, and shifting liability from drivers to manufacturers. The takeaway is clear: the future of AVs is not just technological, but deeply social, political, and spatial. With proactive planning and equity-focused policy, transportation professionals can guide automation toward more sustainable outcomes. Download the brief and join ITE in leading the conversation around the future of automated mobility.
