autonomous driving level 4 – Robotaxis still on the rise
Summary
Robotaxis without safety operator for the first time
China: The technology giant Baidu and Pony.ai are allowed to use driverless robot taxis on public roads in two Chinese cities. Accordingly, 
Baidu’s autonomous ridehailing service Apollo Go can now transport people without a safety driver in the megacities of Chongqing and Wuhan. The Baidu subsidiary Apollo Go is also on the road in China’s other metropolises: Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen. It has handled over one million rides (albeit with an operator) in ten cities where it offers ridehailing since 2020.
Despite setbacks due to accidents, technology continues to advance and the authorities are following suit.
