UK remains the leader for autonomous car developments

The UK is positioning itself at the forefront of testing and development of the technologies that will ultimately realise the goal of driverless vehicles.

Driverless vehicle technology has the potential to be a real game changer for many markets, and on the UK’s roads, driverless cars will be able to alter the face of motoring in the most fundamental of ways, delivering major benefits for road safety, social inclusion, emissions and congestion.

Up until now, the scope for testing driverless cars has been limited, but the UK has recently been given the green light for testing on public roads, setting it apart as a premium location for developing new technology.
