On this episode of The Middle, we ask if you are ready for autonomous vehicles. Companies like Waymo, Zoox, and Tesla already operate them in many parts of the United States and they are expanding rapidly.

Proponents see self-driving cars as a safer alternative to human-driven vehicles, and say they'll make transportation more convenient and more accessible. But many people still don't trust them, and there are fears about handing another industry full of jobs over to artificial intelligence.

Jeremy is joined by Axios transportation correspondent Joann Muller and transportation innovation expert Karina Ricks of Cityfi, to discuss what autonomous vehicles could mean for safety, jobs, traffic, and daily life.
