In many states, the AV industry and elected officials are working together to make the future of transportation a reality. When creating laws that allow vehicles with higher levels of automation to take to the roads, leadership in state legislatures is important.

On November 1st, a newly signed law will take effect in Oklahoma authorizing fully autonomous vehicles to operate under certain conditions. When enacted, Oklahoma will join other states along the important I-40 corridor that allow the deployment of AV vehicles for freight hauling and other commercial purposes.

Oklahoma State House Representative Nicole Miller and Kodiak Robotics Head of External Affairs Daniel Goff will join us to discuss how Oklahoma is taking the next step in embracing the benefits that AV technology can bring to freight trucking. In this panel, Rep. Miller will describe how she successfully brought people together to pass AV legislation critical to the future of her state.

Our next virtual panel on July 13 will be one you won’t want to miss!

Panelists:

• Rep. Nicole Miller – Chair of Appropriations Subcommittee on Transportation, Oklahoma House of Representatives, District 82
• Dan Goff – Head of External Affairs, Kodiak
