Driverless Vehicles with No Steering Wheels or Pedals Now on U.S. Roads with More Coming Soon

By B.N. Frank

Various problems have already been identified in most if not all autonomous aka self-driving software applications (see 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11) – not just Tesla’s (see 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6).  Of course, cybersecurity experts continue to warn that all “smart” technology – including what is being installed in vehicles – is also vulnerable to hackers.  Additionally, AV technology emits biologically and environmentally harmful radiation as well (see 1, 2, 3).  Nevertheless, this hasn’t stopped U.S. municipalities from permitting and promoting autonomous vehicles (AVs), including self-driving taxis and trucks, as part of their “smart city” plans.  Despite reports about numerous issues with self-driving cars already been reported in San Francisco, there are plans to release more of them in the Golden State and the rest of the U.S.  Look out!

Automated Vehicles With No Steering Wheel Or Pedals Hit US Roadways

by Tyler Durden

Driverless vehicles without steering wheel or pedals are already hitting US roadways and could revolutionize how people move about. There’s already one brand of autonomous vehicles on US roadways, with another two companies working to debut their automated transportation services soon.

In a note released Tuesday, BloombergNEF analyst Siong-Hu Wong covers the top three autonomous vehicles without steering wheels set for commercialization.

The first is Amazon-owned Zoox’s electric VH6 shuttles are already operating on California public roads. The robotaxi service is only available to employees for now but expects approvals by the state government will allow the service to be offered to the general public near-term.

In February, General Motors-backed Cruise received permission from California’s Department of Motor Vehicles to test its Origin shuttle on roadways.

Another robotaxi is Waymo’s Zeekr M-Vision, which will enter production next year. The Zeekr is similar to the other robotaxi-makers.

Automated vehicles, or the shuttles above, could be the biggest thing to hit the auto industry ever. It will entirely change the way people get around.

However, the dystopic thing about this all is that Americans must give up owning cars and instead rely on robotaxi companies for transportation. The problem with that is control.
