Texas is perfect for testing driverless cars, but technology will outpace regulation
Autonomous cars have already arrived on Dallas streets. As they grow in number, Texas leaders must keep both eyes on the road. News about self-driving cars has been the talk of cities such as Austin, Texas, and San Francisco. But driverless rideshare vehicles, or “robotaxis,” are also being tested in Dallas. Autonomous car company Cruise is testing their Chevy Bolts, albeit with a human in the driver’s seat. By the end of the year, Cruise hopes to release cars into Dallas without human backup following a multistep testing period.
