More than two-thirds of motorists disagree with the UK Government’s assertion that self-driving cars should be allowed on UK roads later this year.
A consumer survey carried out by What Car? found 76% of drivers are uncomfortable with the idea of sharing a road with a self-driving vehicle, even in limited use, while 29% think their 2021 introduction to roads is a good idea.
And the research highlighted a marked lack of understanding about the various levels of assistance such systems could provide to drivers, with just 35% of drivers stating that they knew the difference between Level 1 through Level 6 autonomous vehicles.
