    Yep, I’m pretty confident they won’t be autonomously driving on EU roads legally until they conform to pretty strict legislation which I’m pretty sure will include the liability of the company.

    Nice of Mercedes to do the right thing without being forced to, that’s surprisingly rare.

      I believe they’re already allowed in Germany actually, although their autonomous driving feature is very limited in where it can be activated. Hopefully other vehicle manufacturers follow suit and take liability when doing autonomous driving (as opposed to “assisted driving”, which many vehicles currently have).
