Can you imagine a future where cars drive themselves? Would self-driving vehicles benefit society and improve social mobility? What do you think? Whether you're a non driver, a new driver or a petrol head, we're offering you the opportunity to get your opinions heard.

We are looking for participants to join our focus group on the 30th June at Coventry Transport Museum. During the afternoon workshop, researchers from our Experiential Engineering group will explore your attitudes towards self-driving cars and your thoughts on the future of motoring. The workshop agenda is available here.

We want to know what effect you think self-driving vehicles will have on our society and importantly what would affect your trust in this new technology? Would vehicle brand influence how you feel, or whether you would trust the security of the new technology? We will explore these questions and much more at this joint event run with Coventry University and Transport for West Midlands.

If you’re interested in participating you will need to complete the short registration questionnaire available here - it only take 2 - 3 minutes to complete.
