Nuro R2: US authorities approve completely driverless car for road tests

Nuro, an autonomous delivery startup, has been granted permission by the US National Highway Transport Safety Authority (NHTSA) to operate its completely driverless delivery vans for the coming two years. Other self-driving vehicles allowed on public roads in the US still feature a steering wheel and pedals, and usually have a human sitting in the driver's seat monitoring operation, ready to step in if the car does something unusual and enters a situation it wasn't designed for.
