Recently, a study found it could still be 12 or more years before we can buy a self-driving car.

Listen to Jonathan Kelly, a professor at University of Toronto who specializes in autonomous vehicles, share his take. Below, Jonathan discusses if he agrees with that timeline prediction, the pros and cons of self-driving cars and the tech behind them that makes them work.

Want to hear more from Jonathan?

Enroll in his Introduction to Self-Driving Cars course, which is part of the Self-Driving Car Specialization.

Or if you’re a member of the press, set up an interview with Jonathan or learn more about his background.
