There are currently 42 companies testing some 285 autonomous vehicles that are licensed with the DMV, officials said. Nearly 1,000 safety drivers are licensed to test those vehicles, but after the state\u2019s rules go into effect, companies would be allowed to deploy cars without any human behind the wheel.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-4012 size-full\" title=\"Autonomous Cars\" src=\"https:\/\/autoscommunity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Autonomous-Cars.jpg\" alt=\"Autonomous Cars\" width=\"1199\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/autoscommunity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Autonomous-Cars.jpg 1199w, https:\/\/autoscommunity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Autonomous-Cars-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/autoscommunity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Autonomous-Cars-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/autoscommunity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Autonomous-Cars-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1199px) 100vw, 1199px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The rules are a stark departure from the original proposal issued in 2015. Those draft regulations would have put the kibosh on autonomous vehicles without a human driver, such as Google\u2019s steering wheel-less prototype. But then in May, the agency reversed itself, putting out a new proposal that would not only allow for the testing of self-driving cars without a human driver, but also regulate the manufacture and sale of fully autonomous vehicles.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Today, the DMV released a number of small revisions, including new provisions requiring manufacturers to notify local governments when they plan on testing autonomous vehicles in their cities or towns. The DMV is also issuing a new template for manufacturers to report the number of times the vehicle forced the human driver to take control because it couldn\u2019t safely navigate the conditions on the road. And operators will be required to report to the state when some technological upgrades are made, such as a change in the level of automation.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-4013 size-full\" title=\"Autonomous Cars-01\" src=\"https:\/\/autoscommunity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Autonomous-Cars-01.jpg\" alt=\"Autonomous Cars-01\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1125\" srcset=\"https:\/\/autoscommunity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Autonomous-Cars-01.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/autoscommunity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Autonomous-Cars-01-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/autoscommunity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Autonomous-Cars-01-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/autoscommunity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Autonomous-Cars-01-1024x576.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The state is not changing its prohibition on the testing of autonomous trucks, arguing that a separate rule-making process will be needed to allow for the testing of <a href=\"https:\/\/autoscommunity.com\/2016\/12\/06\/volvo-xc90-t8-r-design-polestar\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #3366ff; text-decoration: underline;\">self-driving vehicles<\/span><\/span><\/a> over 10,000 pounds.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Congress is currently considering legislation that would allow companies to manufacture and deploy cars without traditional controls like pedals and steering wheels.
