When I was at the ORD rental car center back in early March, I asked a couple people at the Info booth about when the ATS would start running. They said the most recent thing they heard was quite possibly not until late this year. They went on to mention that during one of the test runs, the doors opened unexpectedly. Yikes, imagine what a disaster that would be if people were on board.
