UK Government Reviews Driverless Cars

The government wants the UK to become a leading country in driverless technology.

It will publish a code of practice in spring which will allow the testing of autonomous cars to go ahead. Changes to road regulations and car maintenance checks will be necessary to accommodate driverless cars on the roads of the UK, a Department of Transport report has confirmed. Self-drive pods that will be tested in Milton Keynes and Coventry have been unveiled for the first time.

A full review of necessary legislative changes is to be undertaken by 2017.
