Aptiv, an automated driving technology firm, is partnering with Lyft to offer self-driving car rides during the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas from Jan. 9 to Jan. 12.
The CES rides, available to more than 20 destinations throughout Las Vegas, will demonstrate Aptiv’s automated driving platform and Lyft’s smart dispatching technology, according to Aptiv. Lyft passengers can request an autonomous vehicle ride from the Las Vegas Convention Center’s Gold Lot.

Before each ride, passengers will move through an informative exhibit to learn more about autonomous vehicle benefits. Additionally, a host in the driver’s seat will contribute to the educational experience during the ride, Aptiv said.
“This partnership represents a real-life application of scalable, automated driving technology that will have a significant impact on improving safety, emissions and urban congestion challenges,” said Kevin Clark, Aptiv’s president and CEO.
Aptiv acquisition nuTonomy recently launched an automated driving pilot with Lyft in Boston.
Distracted driving remains one of the most persistent risks in fleet operations. New approaches focus on removing mobile device use entirely while adding real-time safety support.
As distraction risks evolve, fleets are turning to smarter, more connected technologies to better understand what’s happening behind the wheel. Part 2 explores how these tools are helping identify risky behaviors and improve visibility across operations.
Distracted driving is often measured by what we can see—phones in hand, eyes off the road. But what about the distractions we can’t? A recent incident raises a bigger question about awareness, attention, and why subtle risks so often go unnoticed.
Fleets have more driver data than ever, so why isn't behavior changing? Training requires more than reports and coaching — it requires real-world practice.
A two-part conversation with Stefan Heck on how AI is transforming the fight against distracted driving. As fleets adopt smarter tools, the focus shifts from reacting to preventing risk. In Part 1, we look at where AI is making an impact for fleets today.
An 11% drop in pedestrian fatalities in early 2025 signals progress in U.S. road safety, but elevated death rates and ongoing risks underscore the need for continued action from fleets and policymakers.
