A. The 21st-century city is defined by perpetual motion, yet its arteries are frequently sclerotic. Urban transportation, a marvel of modern engineering, is paradoxically plagued by inefficiency. Gridlock, pollution, and a high incidence of human-error-related accidents are the daily realities for billions of commuters. Against this backdrop, autonomous vehicles (AVs) are being heralded not merely as an incremental improvement, but as a paradigm shift with the potential to redefine urban mobility. These self-driving vehicles, classified in levels from 0 (no automation) to 5 (full automation), promise a future where transportation is safer, more efficient, and seamlessly integrated into the fabric of smart cities. The transition, however, will be as complex as it is transformative, requiring a confluence of technological, social, and legislative evolution. B. At the core of the AV revolution is the promise of unprecedented efficiency and safety. Freed from the limitations of human reaction times and perceptual errors, a network of fully autonomous vehicles could operate in remarkable harmony. Through vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication, AVs ca…
