self-driving cars

New York law states that all drivers not part of an approved testing program must keep both hands on the wheel.

Rides will be free to the approximately 8,500 Navy Yard workers.

The cars will be tested in a five square mile radius in Lower Manhattan beginning in early 2018.

Self-driving car tests on New York highways are getting the all-clear in the new budget the state legislature is voting on this week.

Some lawmakers are concerned that the technology could be hazardous in NYC.
