Automated Vehicles with Dan McGehee of the University of Iowa

We hear so much about self-driving vehicles but in reality how far away are they? My guest is Dr. Dan McGehee  the Director of the Human Factors and Vehicle Safety Research Division at the University of Iowa Public Policy Center. What he has to say about automated vs. autonomous vehicles may surprise you. What is really amazing is that his team works on projects that are 20 years ahead of production.

Saudi Aramco had another big day;
Boeing and the saga of the 737 Max;
Krispy Kreme & Nazis;
The people who are benefiting from the economy;
Hot real estate markets- not where you think;
The Wall Street Report;
Make a great living by starting out here.
Those stories plus a review of a conversation about student loan debt with Steve McCullough of Iowa Student Loan. We're airing this tonight because we figure lots of families will be getting together and this could be a topic of conversation. You can listen to that conversation here.
