As the year 2020 comes to a close, and we look forward to 2021, we thought it would be a great time to discuss what the future of driving looks like. Vehicles have evolved drastically over the past several years, and all indications are even more significant changes will be occurring in the future.

As of today, we are mostly at Level 2 of driverless vehicles, but we are slowly beginning to see Level 3 vehicles enter the market. It may be another several years, or even decades, before we see fully-automated vehicles.
