There Auto Be A Law

Our podcast discusses auto safety issues and technological developments, in hopes of providing consumers and enthusiasts with a better understanding of modern vehicles, safety systems, and current issues in the industry.

Every week listen to Executive Director Michael Brooks, Chief Engineer Fred Perkins and host Anthony Cimino as they discuss a range of auto safety issues including self-driving cars, airbag propellants, vehicle weight and everything else car related.

The auto industry still doesn't like AEB and listeners have a cynical take on why. Waymo has the best PR and enlists a doctor/investor to carry water for them. And Waymo can't understand school bus stop signs in Texas. Maybe move some of that PR money to safety engineering? Elon encourages his customer to break the law and Hyundai has a unique recall.
