On June 17, Danica Gonzalves, PVA Senior Advocacy Attorney, test-rode an autonomous vehicle (AV) in Washington, DC. AVs are self-driven vehicles and are expanding to cities as a rideshare service. However, there are currently no wheelchair-accessible AVs in the U.S. Last year, PVA and other disability rights organizations submitted a letter to the House of Representatives to emphasize the importance of accessible AVs. The letter outlined how this new emerging mode of transportation must be accessible for people with all types of disabilities. PVA will continue to work with companies, Congress, and the Administration on the development and deployment of these vehicles.
