Driverless Cars Regulations

China’s Shenzhen will now allow registered autonomous vehicles (AVs) to operate without a driver in the driving seat across a broad swath of the city, but a driver must still be present in the vehicle. The new rule for firms testing driverless robotaxis in the city like Baidu’s Apollo unit, Toyota-backed Pony, Nissan-backed Weride, Alibaba-back...

The UK government on Wednesday became the first country to announce it will regulate the use of self-driving vehicles at slow speeds on motorways, with the first such cars possibly appearing on public roads as soon as this year.

GM faces pushback over its request that US regulators waive some safety standards to make it possible to deploy a fleet of driverless cars without steering wheels, other human controls.

At a public hearing in Sacramento, carmakers in the US tried to persuade the state of California to let go of some additional proposed regulations for driverless cars.

California, the largest U.S. car market, plans to allow testing on public roads of self-driving vehicles without human backup drivers by the end of the year, state officials said. The state's Department of Motor Vehicles is seeking public comment on proposed regulations for driverless testing and public use of autonomous vehicles that will no longe...

The current safety regulations for driverless cars do not plan for tasks that previously could only be performed by humans, and are therefore ill-equipped to ensure that autonomous vehicles will perform safely and reliably, experts say. "Currently, we ensure safety on the roads by regulating the performance of the various mechanical systems of vehi...

Apple urged regulators not to impose too many restrictions on testing of self-driving cars, saying "established manufacturers and new entrants should be treated equally."

A self-driving car being tested on Singapore public roads collided with a lorry on Tuesday, the city-state's transport regulator said, adding that no one was hurt.

Infiniti has announced that, if local regulations permit, the company's autonomous car could hit the road in Hong Kong by 2020.
