Overdrive: Cars, Transport And Culture

Dieselgate collusion? What can a driver do in an autonomous bus? We take a look at the latest news stories including: • EU investigating diesel collusion among Audi, BMW, Mercedes, Porsche, VW: report • Chinese tech giant Baidu taps Microsoft to expand development of self-driving cars • Start-up electric car company Lucid Motors is looking for buyers: is it Faraday Future 2.0? • Automakers rally to kill proposed border tax • 'It's shocking': Victoria's worrying culture of aggressive driving We have a lovely chat about Rolls Royce’s image. Are they trying to cover more than just the elite? And we look at the Darwin experience of driverless buses with drivers still on board. If they are not driving what useful things can they do? We have a couple of reflections on the planning of our cities from a recent forum. And in our panel discussion we take a jolly look at stories including: • A working 6-speed gearbox made of LEGO • TrainyMcTrainface: New train in Sweden named as 'revenge for BoatyMcBoatface'
