Basically, Britain wishes to encourage development and adoption of advanced technologies, including, but not limited to, autonomous vehicles. For such a small country, there are a big bunch of driverless pilots going on or planned for the very near future.
Yesterday, the Queen gave a speech as part of her regal role at the start of a new Parliament. The text of the Queen's speech covers far-ranging topics and is a neat insight into the hopes and dreams of the UK legislature. And where they want to be is at the forefront of driverless technology.
On the other side of the pond - nothing in Congress
Although the Obama Administration is ambitious with a long-proposed $4 billion investment, that's never going to happen while Obama remains in office. Congress will not budge. I am hoping for a change in the next Congress.
