The infrastructure debt in the US is huge and it gets harder and harder every year to catch up. The idea that self driving cars, as some seem to argue below this post, will somehow solve this infra debt is IMHO just plain uninformed. The Economist sets the underinvestment at $94 billion / year.
If the US doesn't sort this out it will have a significant impact in growth in the future. You can maybe see some of the effects of this already in the faster moving Internet infrastructure.
