Figure 10: Opportunity for AV to Increase Productivity by Reducing Time Wasted
For example, AVs could provide increased
access to transportation in general to 15M-
20M seniors who struggle to get it. 33 This
figure will likely increase as the population
who are 65 or older grows to more than 78
million by 2035. 34 study on comparing the distance and mode
of transportation to radiotherapy and
chemotherapy
and
perceptions
of
transportation as a barrier to care among
white, black and Hispanic cancer patients
found that 55% of African American and 60%
of
Hispanic
respondents
reported
transportation being a major barrier to
treatment, compared to 38% of white
respondents. 35
In terms of health care, AVs could provide
increased access to transportation for health
care across all demographics. For example, a In terms of education, AVs could provide
increased access to educational choices. For
example, although “more than 25 million
AVs also stand to increase quality of life of
