Could an Autonomous Driving Test Be on the Cards?
Volvo has announced that it plans to trial its autonomous vehicles on the roads of London from early next year, but does that mean that a new autonomous driving test could be on the cards?
According to a report by by the European Transport Safety Council (ETSC), both drivers and cars should have to pass a new autonomous driving test if they get behind the wheel of one on the road.
The European think tank suggests that the new test should be different to the current driving test, ensuring a driver is capable of regaining control of a vehicle that can drive itself.
