Schedule and safety concerns with JTA’s new NAVI service: No rides on game days

JTA’s semi-autonomous shuttle has been touted as the transportation of the future, but Action News Jax has learned the NAVI won’t be making the cut for Jags game days. Investigator Emily Turner has dug into the NAVI operations and found concerns that have riders scratching their heads.

The problems aren’t limited to when it runs. There are safety concerns as well. For a vehicle that is not only sporting multimillion-dollar autonomous technology but also has a driver behind the wheel, Action News Jax found it’s already gotten into at least one wreck.

While the NAVI came online to the public in June amid much fanfare, the acclaimed $65 and a half million-dollar shuttle has left much to be desired by some.
