Infrastructure spending is problematic. Heck, many states cannot even keep their bridges in good repair. I get the feeling that to enhance the roads, big tech needs to come up with a standard and finance it’s inclusion when major road work is done. Otherwise, I don’t see a way forward with augmented roads.

Yes, or some startup figures out that they can start doing it and charge the tech companies for access to their platform.

An open standard would be better of course.

An open standard is easier for lawmakers since they just quote the standard document.
