RE:https://www.cnbc.com/2022/03/11/us-clears-way-for-driverless The first time getting into one of these cars must be a very freaky experience:
"Federal vehicle safety regulators have cleared the way for the production and deployment of driverless vehicles that do not include manual controls such as steering wheels or pedals.
The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration on Thursday issued final rules eliminating the requirement that cars with automated driving systems, or self-driving vehicles, include these conventional controls."
