I read with interest the report in the Idaho Statesman of the mayor’s presentation to the Boise Downtown Association and his thoughts for the future of transportation in Boise.

In a short nine years we will be a quarter century through the 21st. Yet there will be more changes to transportation needs in those nine years than there have been in the last 65. So it is time to chart the future for the needs of 2025 and stop the backward-looking view framed by the 20th century.

By 2025, autonomous, driverless vehicles will dominate the highways and byways of the world. Boise will not escape this movement. Google and Apple, Mercedes and Tesla already have self-driving cars on the road.
