Hi I am Grayson Brulte and welcome to another episode of The Road To Autonomy
Recently a subcommittee of the United States Congress took bold and decisive action by
passing autonomous vehicle legislation that will establish a national framework
When we achieve Level 5 autonomy the winners will not be the traditional car manufacturers,
instead, the winners will be the entrepreneurs that believed in the American Dream
The public will be the winners
In the future, thanks to autonomous vehicles the public will have reliable point-to-point
on-demand autonomous transportation
Today the biggest current hurdle facing entrepreneurs is the patch work of laws
All 50 States are taking a different approach to how to put autonomous vehicles on public roads in their states
Some states like Arizona, Florida, and Nevada are taking bold steps by eliminating regulation
and allowing the technology to prosper
Other states such as California are taking restrictive approaches on how to put autonomous
vehicles on the road, which are hindering the investment in autonomous vehicles
We need a clear National Framework to allow autonomous vehicles to go over State lines
When we allow autonomous vehicles to go over state lines, we will usher in the single greatest
change in society since the industrial revolution
In order for autonomous vehicles to become successful in the United States we need a National
Framework and that National Framework starts in Washington D.C.
The bold step taken by the United States Congress Subcommittee and a similar bill being taken
up by the United States Senate is bold and commendable
and it is something that we need
It is time for Congress to act along with The United States Senate and pass a National
Framework for autonomous vehicles
The future is bright, the future is autonomous, the future is innovative
Together we can usher in the future of autonomy

Caught Speeding: The Rise of Electric Vehicles & the Impact to the Energy Sector - Duration: 3:42.
It's difficult to imagine a world without gas stations and without gas-powered vehicles,
but that's about to change.
Right now, we are cognitively and physically anchored to oil.
We drive home from work; we fuel up our cars at a gas station.
It's part of our normal life and 44% of oil consumption is to power passenger vehicles
– the cars that you and I drive.
Now if that were to drop off, then that's going to significantly impact and we project
that that is in fact what's going to happen.
The adoption of electric vehicles appears
primed to be a major disruption to the energy sector.
So when you think about any innovation, whether it's CD players, computers, you name it,
there is a slow early adoption,
then it quicklyramps up and it's something that we know
as the S curve of adoption.
We've seen this before in the original
introduction of motorized vehicles.
If you look at the year 1900
and you were to look at a picture of New York City,
you'd see that there were hundreds of horse drawn
carriages and if you looked really closely, you
might spot the one motorized vehicle that was there.
Fast forward 15 years and you look at the same area of New York, and you'd see hundreds
of vehicles, motorized vehicles, and if you looked really closely, you might spot the
one or two horse drawn carriages.
It happens really quickly, the adoption curve.
For electric vehicles, the limiting factors right now are the costs of the batteries
and the range of these batteries.
When you think about where battery costs have come from, they've come down from about
$1000 per kilowatt-hour down to $227 per kilowatt-hour.
Now in the past four years, battery prices were basically halved and in the past six
years, the price has come down by 80%, so pretty significantly.
The Holy Grail is to get to $100 per kilowatt-hour
and at that point you're at price parity for combustion engines.
The range of batteries has been a concern.
Everyone's heard of range anxiety, but the efficiency of batteries has been growing,
on average, seven to eight per cent every year.
For the majority of us, we use our cars on a daily basis to get to work.
In fact, 80% of Canadians drive to work.
The latest census shows that the average drive to work is 25 minutes and so charging is really
not a factor for urban travel.
Most people will get to work and back and be able to charge their cars in their garage
overnight when it's cheapest to do it, but there is concern about the infrastructure
and the build out of charging stations.
While that's a legitimate concern, that's happening right now.
The build out is happening right now.
In fact, in Japan, they have more charging stations than they do petrol stations.
The Canadian Growth Team is focused on free cash flow growth.
When you consider that we're looking about 10 years out when we discount our cash flows
for the companies that we own, we are not giving our portfolios meaningful exposure
to the energy sector.
The demand factor is going to be significantly impacted when we do make the change over from
internal combustion engine to electric vehicles, which we think is going to happen any time
between 2020 to 2030, but perhaps lean on the earlier side of that.

Vehicle Wrap Design 101: Less is More - Duration: 2:07.
Welcome to Vehicle Wrap Design 101.
Today we'll be talking about the unparalleled, stupendous, glorious, articulate, potent power
of … simplicity.
Like the sudden stillness after a string of adjectives, simplicity instantly pulls you
in.
On a well designed vehicle graphic, it's simplicity that helps people focus on the
key elements of your branding message.
Which are: logo—including the company name, maybe a short slogan, and maybe a web address.
Phone number?
Eh … Be honest: have you ever dialed a number that
you just read on the side of a vehicle?
No, your were driving, and you're a safe driver, so you didn't try to write stuff
down; you kept both hands on the wheel.
But you did notice the colors of that vehicle in traffic, and then the logo.
Maybe a slogan.
Maybe even a web address, if traffic was slow.
And you just noticed the vehicle graphics for a second—because you're driving, but
a little thought said, "Yeah, I know who that is.
I've seen them around."
And then, EYES ON THE ROAD!
Well done!
I know: you're driving, you're watching everything.
That's all the time you had was that split second.
But you see that vehicle several times a month or maybe a week, and every time you see it,
a little thought back there says, "I sort of know who they are."
This incredibly brief mental event is called a brand impression.
And a vehicle wrap design has to be SIMPLE to stick in this time because reading is hard,
and we don't want to do it, especially when we're driving.
A vehicle wrap can deliver up to 70,000 of these brand impressions in a day.
A day.
And every time people see your vehicle, they're reminded that your company is part of the
their community, part of the landscape.
And when it comes time for them to buy what you sell, they know your name.
And even if they don't remember a web address, they can find it on their phone, and they probably will.
Because familiarity breeds trust.
So keep it clean, keep it simple, and remember: the world is moving fast, and you only have
an instant create a complete brand impression with vehicle graphics.
Nice talking to you. Drive safe.
