Abstract: This paper provides a preliminary assessment of uncertainties, both technical and institutional, associated with the deployment of Automated Highway Systems (AHS). Seven issues are addressed, concerning whether: (1) People use AHS, ( 2 ) Auto makers manufacture equipped vehicles, (3) Government builds AHS roadways, (4)Highways can evolve, ( 5 ) Interest groups do not obstruct, (6) Performance is adequate, and (7) Technology is feasible. For each issue, a table is provided that lists some of the more critical uncertainties.
