Why Does The Car Industry Have 5 Levels Of Self-Driving Automation?

Описание: There are five levels of automation in driving. From Level 0, where the human is fully in control, to Level 5, where the car drives itself in every scenario. You can’t buy a Level 5 vehicle today. Not in California. Not even from Tesla.

Barry Lunn, CEO and Founder of Provizio, joins us to think on paper about these five layers, and why most automakers are still stuck at Level 2.

Inside this episode:

What each level of automation really means, from 0 to 5
Why most companies can’t break past Level 2
The engineering and regulatory barriers to higher levels of autonomy
What conditional automation looks like in practice
Why full self-driving remains out of reach—and what it will take to get there

This isn’t marketing spin. It’s a clear map of where we are, what’s next, and why the leap to Level 5 is harder than most people think.

This is Thinking on Paper. A breakdown of the autonomy spectrum and what it tells us about the future of cars, safety, and control.

Please enjoy the show.

And share with someone curious about where driving is really headed.
