A New Era for Automotive History ft. Casey Maxon of The Hagerty Drivers Foundation

In an age of electrification, autonomy, and software-defined cars, when so much change is coursing through the collective automotive industry, what does it mean to preserve the history of the automobile? As we seek to build a better and more equitable world under the banner of future mobility, how can we safeguard the stories and experiences of those before us who loved the cars of yesteryear? 

Casey Maxon, Senior Manager of Heritage at the Hagerty Drivers Foundation, joins Carl for this episode of AutoVision News Radio. Casey shares the vision of the Foundation, the inspiration behind the National Historic Vehicle Register, and how platforms like YouTube are powerful tools for preserving automotive history.
