Self-Driving Taxis from Uber and Wayve Receive Licenses for London Streets

Self-driving taxis are set to begin operations in London later this summer, as Uber and Wayve have been granted the first Minicab licenses in the city. These companies will initially offer rides to paying customers with a human safety driver present, marking a significant step towards a full public launch. This development positions London as one of the first major global cities to host self-driving taxi services from both American and Chinese tech firms.
