00:02Uber has launched a driverless taxi service in Zagreb, Croatia, with plans to expand to
00:08cities across Europe. The American ride-hailing giant collaborated with
00:16Croatian start-up Vern and Chinese AI firm Pony.ai.
00:26Magical experience, we call it a little bit of magically boring, meaning you get in and you
00:31first look like, oh, no one's hands are on the wheel. Then all of a sudden you're just in a
00:34car
00:34like you normally would be and really getting to experience the future here in Zagreb.
00:41The cars have already travelled 200,000 kilometres on Zagreb's roads,
00:45with fully driverless trips now being tested in a limited area.
00:53His cars still have a human in the driving seat who oversees the trip as a security measure.
01:08Manchester is next, while Brussels is also being considered as Europe grapples with how
01:13to regulate autonomous vehicles.
