title: Let Tesla Park Your Tesla: Driver Trust in a Semi Automated Car
abstract: The reality of highly automated vehicles on every road seems increasingly possible. With companies such as Tesla, Google, Toyota, and many others racing to provide a fully autonomous vehicle, the need for research on self driving cars has never been greater. Until recently, however, most of this research had been conducted in a sterile lab environment devoid of any real consequences. For that reason, we join a host of other researchers in evaluating human automation interaction in the real world associated with miscalibrated trust. As previous research has shown, drivers can either over or under trust a vehicle's automated features. To evaluate this in these in a realistic setting, we had participants use the Autopark feature in a Tesla Model X or park the car themselves in both parallel and perpendicular scenarios. Parking times, driver trust, self confidence in their own ability to park, and workload were all evaluated throughout the experiment. Preliminary analyses into the data are reported. Trends for the interactions between parking condition (self versus auto) and the parking type (parallel versus perpendicular) emerged for both trust/self confidence and workload. Data collection is still ongoing to evaluate whether these trends hold, and if they emerge as significant. In all, this study contributes to the growing body of literature which seeks to understand the complexities of human automation interaction in the real world.

title: The Driverless Car and the Legal System: Hopes and Fears as the Courts, Regulatory Agencies, Waymo, Tesla, and Uber Deal with this Exciting and Terrifying New Technology
abstract: There are an astounding number of deaths and injuries resulting from car accidents each year. Since the development of the motor vehicle, societies and legal systems have considered vehicular deaths and injuries as an acceptable cost when compared to the benefits of the motor vehicle.The development of the driverless car has the potential to reduce the carnage that result from motor vehicle accidents. Many of these unnecessary deaths and injuries will be prevented by the new technology. This paper will discuss how the legal system in pursuit of justice and corporations in pursuit of profits deal with this new technology.

title: What does Tesla mean to car buyers? Exploring the role of automotive brand in perceptions of battery electric vehicles
abstract: Among the broad literature on consumer research of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) the role of brand perceptions is neglected. Consumers may gravitate towards automotive brands that they are accustomed to "brand loyalty" or they might prefer a new brand (i.e. Tesla) for being new and innovative "pioneer brand advantage" Further, BEV supportive policies may indirectly favor or disfavor the BEVs produced by a given brand. We explore consumer perceptions of automotive brand perceptions in general, and for the specific case of Tesla, using survey data from a representative sample of 2123 Canadian new vehicle buyers collected in 2017. Respondents most frequently associate BEVs with Tesla (27% Toyota (27% and Chevrolet (26% Over two thirds of respondents are familiar with Tesla, and 40% select Tesla as a brand representing the "future of BEVs" In contrast, when asked which brand they would prefer to buy a BEV from, responses are more evenly spread across several brands, with 30% of respondents selecting a brand they already own. Of Tesla familiar respondents, most indicate that Tesla has influenced them to perceive BEVs as more innovative, stylish, and environmentally beneficial. Respondents have stronger image associations with Tesla, relative to BEVs more generally, and such perceptions are statistically associated with stated interest in purchasing a BEV. These exploratory findings indicate the potential importance of brand in shaping consumer perceptions of BEVs. Tesla in particular may have played a role in developing positive perceptions of BEVs, suggesting that it might be desirable for policy to support such a brand.

title: Not so fast: Electric car: Mazda has improved the gasoline engine to a level that even Tesla should respect
abstract: THERE ARE LOTS OF REASONS why we're not all driving electric vehicles now. You've probably thought of two or three already, but let me add one that I'm sure you haven't. It's a big obstacle to EVs, and it's rarely remarked upon.
