ITN America has been providing mobility to older adults who need rides for thirty years. How? Founder and CEO Katherine Freund and volunteer Marian Sturtevant join Princeton's Alain Kornhauser and co-host Fred Fishkin for that plus the latest on Tesla, Waymo, Handy Rides and more.

A ride sharing mobility service in Florence, Italy, the continued expansion of Waymo and a neurosurgeon says self driving cars save lives. On episode 403 of Smart Driving Cars, Princeton's Alain Kornhauser and co-host Fred Fishkin are joined by University of Florence professor and researcher Adriano Alessandrini. Tune in and subscribe!
