Default Are there Autonomous Vehicles operating in The Villages?

Has anyone heard if there is a company called Voyage operating autonomous vehicles in The Villages? Or, have you heard of any autonomous vehicles from another company operating here?

I'm in the automotive industry and my boss just asked me....

Thanks, Mike.

Voyage was doing it a couple years ago. Haven't heard anything recently.

Default Autonomus Vehicles

We have plenty of them, just drive around and watch. I just wish they could program them to use turn signals, stop at stop signs, learn how to cope with the traffic circles and stay in one lane. When they have this mastered they can get rid of the human who they keep behind the wheel. The humans stay in constant contact with main office by cell phone while monitoring the self driving vehicle.
