Self-conducting car, that moves with the help of sensors and cameras, has already been tested in several countries of the world, like USA and Japan, and soon it will be tested in Sweden.
Representing newest Government plans, British Minister for Business Affairs, Vince Cable, said that British scientists and engineers were actually 'pioneers' of self-conducting cars development.
- Thanks to today's announcement, cars without drivers might be found on our streets in less than 6 months, which will put us in the front line of transforming technologies and it will open new possibilities for our economy and society, said Cable at the headquarters of MIRA in central Britain.
