The LA Auto Show arrives in town, but does it have the buzz it once did? As Angelenos trade in cars for bikes, buses and trains, DnA looks at the changing nature of mobility in the capital of the automobile -- from the hydrogen fuel cell car and the autonomous vehicle to the Hyperloop. With Jerry Hirsch, David Undercoffler and Craig Hodgetts. On Everything Talks, with Tom Saunders, a “fixie” has a run-in with a 27-speed Felt Verza City bike.
