China’s capital city of Beijing has started road tests for the first batch of fully driverless vehicles.

Different from previous tests, safety monitoring is all conducted remotely for the first time.

Over 10 cities in China have allowed commercial trials of autonomous vehicles in designated areas and specific periods of time.

Driverless taxi services were launched in designated areas in Wuhan and Chongqing last August.
