E208 - You may say that I'm a dreamer but I'm not the only one

On the show, I speak with Ben Schmidt, the Co-founder and CEO of a company called Road-botics. They partnered with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation to look at the condition of the roads in 20 major US Cities. The interesting part of this study, more than just the data is the new way they collected the data. They used smartphone cameras mounted to the windshields of vehicles and then they used Artificial Inelegance to analyze it. A quick followup on the space talk from a few episodes back, plus, one of the good guys in the traffic world is calling it quits. All that and more on the Driving You Crazy Podcast.
