An influential U.S. House committee on Thursday approved a revised bipartisan bill on a 54-0 vote that would speed the deployment of self-driving cars without human controls and bar states from blocking autonomous vehicles.

 

The bill would allow automakers to obtain exemptions to deploy up to 25,000 vehicles without meeting existing auto safety standards in the first year, a cap that would rise to 100,000 vehicles annually over three years.

 

En 2018, 25 000 véhicules autonomes seront autorisés à la circulation libre.

 

This is playing out exactly as I expected. In 2018, there will be 25,000 cars and trucks on the and highways and in cities, driving themselves. I suspect most initial testing will be on highways. If that goes well, there will be 100,000 self-driving cars on the roads by 2019-2020.

 

Then, once things go well, and I expect them to go well, most of the trucks on the highways will be driverless.

 

Dans un second temps, les camions autonomes (à la manière de la circulation dans le film X-Men : Logan 2017) seront autorisés (donc en 2020~2022).
