Prior research on attitudes towards autonomous vehicles (AVs) shows variation across a set of demographic and socio-economic factors, but few consider spatial patterns. We investigate the spatial distributions of attitudes and preferences towards AVs from a U.S. nationally representative on-line panel. We examine 1) four attitudinal dimensions established by an exploratory factor analysis – technology acceptance, driving enjoyment, risk-taking, and traffic regulation – and their spatial variations; and 2) public viewpoints and preferences in purchasing, sharing, and using privately-owned and shared AVs. Findings suggest that the northeastern US is more receptive to AVs, compared to other parts of the country.
