Abstract

Based on a survey of 696 visitors to US national parks, we found higher preferences for working/studying/reading (+77%), using social media (+63%), and entertaining (+34%) activities when traveling in an autonomous vehicle (AV) compared to a human-driven vehicle (HV). A multinomial logit-based ranked-choice analysis (between HVs, AVs, and teleportation) suggests that while most travelers enjoy spending time traveling by manually driving and/or engaging in activities of interest in HVs and AVs, some would prefer teleportation instead of spending time traveling. The choice of AVs is significantly influenced by preferences for working/studying/reading and eating/caring activities.
