No I don't remember that. Any chance you have a link?

I remember Tesla fanboys crying when Biden appointed Cummings to the NHTSA, but I can't think of anything else connecting Biden to self-driving cars.

    Ah see this is the problem with political discussion. It turns out he never actually said that.

    According to the article, one tiny piece of the $1.2 trillion dollar infrastructure bill he signed committed two federal agencies to be conduct a study on that as a potential solution.

    The Forbes article editorializes that significantly to say that beaconing has received the "federal stamp of approval".

    It's like a kid asking their parents for McDonalds for hours and the parent says "I'll think about it".
