Wow! Driverless Vehicle Hits The Streets In Downtown Dubai... But In Test Run Mode |PoliFocus

A driverless vehicle started its trial run in downtown Dubai on Thursday and will last for a month.


The autonomous EZ10, jointly launched by Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority and the Emaar Properties, can carry up to 10 passengers to travel short distances over pre-programmed routes, according to Xinhua News Agency. It can travel at a high speed of 40km per hour.

The new ride is free to public during the test run, and after the trial run the vehicles are expected to be used as shuttle buses between the city’s most iconic tourist attractions, including the Burj Khalifa and Mall of the Emirates, among others.

A welcome development!
