According to a new AAA study, 66% of drivers now express fear towards autonomous vehicles, a notable increase from 54% in 2021. The study highlights a growing skepticism despite advancements in self-driving technology. This rise in concern follows several high-profile crashes linked to over-reliance on current vehicle technologies. AAA emphasizes the need for more efforts to build public trust and clarify the capabilities of driver assistance systems. Interestingly, 22% of Americans mistakenly believe that systems like ProPILOT and Autopilot can fully drive a car without human supervision. AAA advocates for clearer communication and industry consistency to improve understanding and trust in future vehicle technologies.
