6 The convergence of several trends -- including shared mobility, the commodification of trans portation, digital integration, electrification, and automation -- are contributing to the growth of new transportation services, such as MOD, AVs, and ADVs. The following chapters of this toolkit discuss the development of these modes, their predicted deployment, and potential impacts.

14 Shared Automated Vehicle Toolkit: Policies and Planning Considerations for Implementation Appendix A: "Sample Policy Agreements" contains sample policy agreements for offering automated shuttles, gapfilling services, and emergency services. These policy agreements can be found in subsections Appendix A2: "Sample Policy Agreement for Automated Shuttles," Appendix A3: "Sample Policy Agreement for GapFilling Services," and Appendix A4: "Sample Policy Agreement for Emergency Services." ADV Deployment As ADVs are deployed they are likely going to be regulated under the same rules as AVs (either by regulation, legislation, or executive order)
