This presentation aims to provide a realistic assessment of the state of the art in Automated Driving Systems based on understanding the long-term historical trends in transportation and the technical challenges that remain to be solved.  It begins with the long history of prior efforts to automate driving and then clarifies the descriptions of automated driving systems based on their levels of automation and connectivity and their operational design domains.  The importance of vehicle-vehicle and vehicle-infrastructure connectivity in order to achieve transportation system improvements from automation is emphasized, based on results of simulations calibrated to full-scale vehicle test results.  The formidable unsolved challenges in perception technology and system safety assurance are then discussed as part of the explanation for why it will take multiple decades of further development efforts before automated driving will be able to serve major fractions of surface transportation needs.
