India Risks Missing Driverless Car Revolution Without Policy Support
Driverless cars are moving from concept to reality in many parts of the world. Autonomous cab services are already operating in select cities, and companies across the globe are investing heavily in self-driving technology. India, however, risks missing out on this fast-growing revolution if it continues to take a rigid stand against driverless vehicles. The concern is understandable. India has millions of people whose livelihoods depend on driving. A sudden entry of fully
