Governor Brown Signs Bill to Create Safety Standards for Self-Driving Cars.

Senate Bill 1298 by Senator Alex Padilla (D-Pacoima) allows driverless cars to be operated on public roads for testing purposes, provided that each vehicle has a fully licensed and bonded operator in the driver’s seat to take control if necessary. The bill also instructs the Department of Motor Vehicles to adopt regulations that govern the licensing, bonding, testing and operation of autonomous vehicle technology.
