1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,540

2
00:00:04,540 --> 00:00:08,860
They call things like driverless
cars disruptive technologies.

3
00:00:08,860 --> 00:00:13,250
They're something that is going
to change the way we live.

4
00:00:13,250 --> 00:00:15,240
But I think that
to be innovative

5
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:17,850
means to not just think
about the technologies,

6
00:00:17,850 --> 00:00:21,000
but to also think about what
the impact of those technologies

7
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:22,560
will be.

8
00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:25,350
We're concerned about planning
the infrastructure that's

9
00:00:25,350 --> 00:00:27,150
required for these vehicles.

10
00:00:27,150 --> 00:00:29,330
We no longer need
parking in front

11
00:00:29,330 --> 00:00:31,330
or adjacent to these
destinations people are at.

12
00:00:31,330 --> 00:00:33,600
We can drastically reduce
the number of cars,

13
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:36,060
and it will really cut
down on urban congestion.

14
00:00:36,060 --> 00:00:39,570
We might be able to
provide access or mobility

15
00:00:39,570 --> 00:00:42,480
to a large number of people
who, right now, can't

16
00:00:42,480 --> 00:00:45,990
make use of our very
vehicle-oriented system

17
00:00:45,990 --> 00:00:48,330
of mobility.

18
00:00:48,330 --> 00:00:50,460
Those are very
exciting possibilities.

19
00:00:50,460 --> 00:00:52,230
And so we're working
with engineers

20
00:00:52,230 --> 00:00:55,470
and talking to planners
and working with historians

21
00:00:55,470 --> 00:00:57,120
to think about how
all of those things

22
00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:59,670
come together when
something disruptive

23
00:00:59,670 --> 00:01:04,360
like driverless vehicles
comes to us in our societies.

24
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:07,290
We have a culture of innovation,
where people are unafraid

25
00:01:07,290 --> 00:01:09,510
to explore new frontiers.

26
00:01:09,510 --> 00:01:13,860
UVA has really tried
to bring extra value

27
00:01:13,860 --> 00:01:15,270
to the big questions.

28
00:01:15,270 --> 00:01:17,820
The big technological
questions, the big questions

29
00:01:17,820 --> 00:01:20,070
around health, all
of these issues,

30
00:01:20,070 --> 00:01:22,550
by bringing people together.

31
00:01:22,550 --> 00:01:28,745
