With increasing automation of the driving task, cars' cockpits are transforming towards living spaces rather than pure modalities of transport. The promise of automated vehicles being individual places for relaxation and productivity while on-the-go, however, requires significant research. Not only safety-critical questions, but also issues related to ergonomic design, human factors for interactive systems, and social aspects have to be investigated. This special interests group presents an opportunity for connecting various CHI communities on these problems, which need to be solved under time-pressure, because automated vehicles are coming - whether or not the HCI-related issues are solved.
