Amid safety concerns, the driverless car debate comes to Madison

Dave Cieslewicz, the head of the Wisconsin Bike Fed and a former Madison mayor, said he’s putting together a conference on the automated car, with a focus on cyclists, pedestrians and “urban form” — the impact cars have on the city. To be held with the support of the UW Urban and Regional Planning Department, the details haven’t been worked out. But Cieslewicz hopes to hold the conference in the spring.
