Dead zones in 5G coverage could limit self-driving cars to dense, urban population centers in the coming years, according to a new article from Motherboard.
That scenario could pose problems for autonomous vehicles relying on 5G connectivity, particularly as the cars become more affordable for consumers.
However, telecoms could actually take advantage of a slew of revenue opportunities by providing 5G connectivity in more rural areas, which will likely push them to extend coverage to those places eventually.
