Without a major political shift, the US will not be leading the way. This kind of major project seems impossible from both parties currently.

It's not only the US; this disease seems to be affecting all western nations. I feel that we'll have to wait for China to successfully deploy such a project, which will finally provide enough political coordination (read: envy) to convince some western nations to just copy it.

Nah, Singapore will just invest in the infrastructure necessary to make it possible when it’s not good enough for California yet and pass the laws and regulations to make it happen. Probably ban non self-driving cars at the same time.
