“The National Highway Traffic Safety ‌Administration has approved a Robotaxi design without human controls such as a steering wheel or pedals. The newly approved vehicle, developed by Zoox, Amazon’s robotaxi subsidiary, uses the space normally occupied by a driver to create a roomy carriage-like cabin for passengers,” reports The Doomslayer. Self-driving cars are generally safer than human-driven cars. Self-driving cars could reduce automobile fatalities by over 90%. As of February, Waymo provided 400,000 robotaxi rides per week, up from 200,000 a year earlier.
