California may allow small self-driving delivery trucks on roads
Manufacturers may be allowed to test autonomous delivery vehicles with an approved permit from the regulator.
California regulators on April 12, proposed regulations that would allow vehicle manufacturers to test or deploy small self-driving delivery trucks on public roads, the state's Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) said in a statement.
Manufacturers will be allowed to test autonomous delivery vehicles weighing less than 10,001 pounds with an approved permit from the regulator, the DMV said.
It was not clear if these delivery vehicles will be required to have a safety driver while testing, as is required for passenger cars.
The regulator will hold a public hearing at its Sacramento headquarters on May 30 to gather inputs on the proposed regulations.
Currently, 62 companies have valid permits to test autonomous vehicles with a safety driver on California public roadways.
