- Human-less Autonomous Vehicle Tests – California’s Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) proposed rule revisions on October 11, 2017, to allow testing of driverless cars without backup drivers and let general public ride autonomous vehicles
- Federal and State Laws on Driverless Cars – U.S. House of Representatives passed bill in September 2017 regulating autonomous vehicle design, performance, and safety standards, while other states have patchwork of regulations, with some having no laws on driverless cars
