iDriveSoCal covers mobility news from the automotive capital of the world – Southern California. We serve content to and connect with audiences via podcast, our website and events.
We’re passionate about life and the quality of it. We love the impact of technology on cars and driving. Plus pretty much everything about getting from point A to B.
So, we cover just about everything from new vehicles to aircraft and driving, riding and flying. As of yet, horses and boats haven’t made our coverage but stay tuned!
If it has to do with getting around, decreasing traffic congestion and stress or increasing family-friendly fun – we’re covering it!

Tom Smith here; I’m a husband and Dad to both my young son and our canine family member. I love cars, driving, technology, and am fascinated by the future of mobility. When I’m not working on iDSC I’m usually spending time with my family. We’re either running around the South Bay or, on special days, taking our son to Disney. There’s nothing better than watching him light up with excitement!
