The objective of the Interdisciplinary Transportation Law and Policy Technology Training Program is to bridge the knowledge gap between fast changing transportation technologies and policymakers, lawmakers and legal counsel. This program will provide funding of $600,000 for a university to develop a one-week training for support staff of lawmakers and policymakers, a one-hour Executive Summary training for busy lawmakers and policymakers themselves, and a semester-long law school curriculum, on fast changing transportation technology in artificial intelligence (AI), automated vehicles (AV), and AV support infrastructure. The agreement will be for a 24-month term.
