Zoox, an autonomous vehicle (AV) company in the Bay Area, aims to deploy the first purpose-built AVs for commercial use. How can Zoox’s AVs make transit safer and help bridge gaps in public transit? On this episode of On the Patio, Tim Haile is joined by Phil Pierce, Senior Public Policy Manager at Zoox, to speak about the importance of purpose-built vehicles, prioritizing safety during development, and partnering with cities and counties to better understand transit needs. They also discuss the different roles Zoox can play in San Francisco and Las Vegas — the first two locations to serve passengers — to connect transit, attractions, and city centers.
