Earlier this week, a truck backed into a driverless shuttle in Las Vegas during the shuttle’s first hour of operation. Was it at all the robot shuttle’s fault? No! Jesus.

On Wednesday, a driverless shuttle debuted in Las Vegas. The shuttle, made by the French company Navya ARMA, began a route looping it around Vegas’s downtown. Within an hour, the shuttle was already involved in a crash.

We’ve seen a few new cars dabble in semi-autonomous driving technology, but by and large they’ve been expensive luxury cars like the Tesla Model S and X, Volvo S90 and XC90, Cadillac CT6 and various Mercedes-Benzes. Nissan’s taking a different tack by putting its new ProPilot Assist system on a pretty affordable…

One of the biggest problems with self-driving cars, according to Bloomberg, is that they drive too perfectly. They do insane things like make full stops at stop signs and drive the speed limit. Crazy things. I’m here to make a prediction: This will make human drivers very mad. And, soon, because we deserve it, the air…

Yesterday, we asked you just what it would take for you to step inside a self-driving taxi, which, whether we like it or not, are probably our future, even if that future may still be some years away. Your responses varied from the not-under-any-circumstances to full-on embrace.

The 2018 Nissan Leaf is coming in hot, and the automaker has been revealing little nuggets of information on its website to remind us. Nissan’s newest revelation: the new Leaf will get a semi-autonomous function called “ProPILOT.” But it won’t quite compete with Tesla’s Autopilot—at least not initially.

Every automaker and car start-up is currently working on the same technology, and now two tech behemoths are pitted against one another. Waymo, the self-driving car project of Google, filed a lawsuit on Thursday against Uber that alleges one of its former employees stole the proprietary design of Waymo’s self-driving…

Waymo, the recently-unveiled name for Google’s self-driving program, has reportedly planned to launch a ride-hailing service with Fiat Chrysler as early as this year, and a new patent that could connect driverless cars to people who would like to use one suggests it’s serious about developing an autonomous…

If you happened to Google “Tesla autopilot” in the last 24 hours, you were greeted by an inundation of headlines that suggested the automaker’s famed feature on a driver’s Model X “predicted,” and helped the motorist avoid, a crash. While it’s notable the vehicle did in fact stop, it seems appropriate to remind Tesla…

A driver allegedly stabbing a passenger, reports of significant financial losses, losing what’s essentially a dumb PR battle with California regulators. For a year that’s basically been the equivalent of bad performance art, Uber is finding numerous ways to end 2016 on a sour note.

As if we haven’t heard enough already about Waymo this month, Honda Motor Co. announced today that it has entered into discussions with the less-boring sounding rename of Google’s self-driving project, a move that could bring the company’s self-driving technology to the automaker’s vehicles.

Standing in line; what’s up with that? Nissan is not up with that, instead deciding to be down with self-driving chairs. WALL-E was an animated movie about a robot judging people in chairs, uh, basically. Those people are us now.

The Obama administration is trying to check as many policy boxes as it can on the way out of the door, and today it finally announced a flexible framework for companies and governments involved in developing self-driving cars.

At this year’s TechCrunch Disrupt SF, PlayStation and iPhone hacker George Hotz showed us the Comma One, a car add-on kit that will tap into a car’s existing hardware and give it an autonomous driving setting.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s information request to Tesla following the death of Joshua Brown in a Tesla Model S with Autopilot activated has been set back a week after Tesla missed the August 26th deadline.

Roborace, the new autonomous racing series set to run alongside Formula E, has just released the final design for its unbelievably cool race car designed by the guy who created the Tron: Legacy Light Cycle, and it’s both a beautiful design achievement and an engineering breakthrough.

Despite a recent ad campaign touting the new 2017 Mercedes E-Class and its “Drive Pilot” driver assistance system as the “first self-driving car,” you actually still have to actively drive it. Sorry.

Mercedes-Benz’ autonomous ambitions have been pretty clear. It’s the future of luxury and all that. Now Darren, a Jalop reader in western Ireland, caught this prototype S-Class fitted with a massive LIDAR array on its roof. But what the hell is Mercedes doing with it?
