All the residents' cars were sent to the mainland and for the past month the islanders have been \"driving\" the Arrival, a revolutionary autonomous vehicle. With a simple voice command, an Arrival will take you wherever you want to go and, because the fleet is networked and aware of one another, car travel is now 100% safe. The future, it seems, has arrived.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs the excitement reaches a fever pitch, Sandra Montrose--islander, single mom, and public relations executive--prepares for Arrival Inc.'s flashy press event.
