For the millions of Americans living with a disability, navigating the world can often be a challenge. At the American Network of Community Options and Resources (ANCOR), a national, nonprofit trade association representing more than 1,400 private community providers of services to people with disabilities, our mission is to advance the ability of our members in supporting people with intellectual and developmental disabilities to fully participate in their communities. We are always interested in supporting the development of technologies that make getting around easier for people living with disabilities. That’s why we are particularly excited about the potential of self-driving cars. However, the benefits of this technology can’t be experienced until Congress passes the AV START Act. We believe the time to pass this legislation is now.
We have supported the AV START Act since 2016 because increased availability of automated vehicles can address the significant transportation challenges faced by the individuals our members support.
