In this episode of Blind Abilities, Jeff welcomes Kevin Chao, an early adopter who has taken more than 60 rides in autonomous vehicles across San Francisco and Austin. Kevin shares his firsthand experiences riding in Tesla RoboTaxis, Waymo vehicles, and Amazon's new Zoox autonomous vehicle—built from the ground up with no steering wheel and inward-facing seats. He describes what it's like to request, ride, and interact with these driverless systems while offering feedback that helps improve the experience. From accessibility to independence, Kevin explores what autonomous transportation could mean for blind and low vision travelers as the future of mobility begins arriving today.
