Uber defies demand to stop using self-driving cars
18th December 2016
Uber seems prepared to flout the law with its self-driving cars - being prepared to ignore the California Attorney-General and continue to run its self-driving cars in San Francisco.
The permit itself isn't expensive "Other companies testing autonomous technology in California, such as Google, have applied for and obtained the permit which costs $150 (£120) for 10 vehicles. Additional vehicles can be added at a rate of $50 for each additional 10 vehicles."
However, one also wonders whether there are potentially damaging consequences for the Uber brand, and, potentially, the concept of self-driving cars.
