So excited to be a part of this exciting demonstration project! #Mobility

Really excited to be part of this talk on automated vehicles on rural roadways!

[Omar Ahmad @simulationhawk]

Looking forward to getting our automated shuttle bus on Iowa's rural roads with a lot of help from our partner! @AutonomouStuff #mobility

[AutonomouStuff @AutonomouStuff]

Can't wait for the Transit to hit the road after integration is complete, and help fulfill the promise of next-generation #mobility for more communities.

@NicholeLMorris I don't see the problem. The kids have learned an important lesson: don't step in front of a motorcycle at a race track !

Look out for school buses and re-familiarize yourself with when it’s not okay to pass a stopped bus. When in doubt, stop. #SafetyFirst #TheMoreYouKnow #PayAttention

[Iowa DOT @iowadot]

Schools all over Iowa are starting. Do you know when it's safe and legal to pass a stopped school bus? #schoolbus #keepingkidssafe #knowbeforeyougo

@BenErtl13 @uiowa Congratulations!
