is going to happen there which is not possible in other countries of
the world at present. Chinese company Baidu and technology

The service was launched in Beijing on April 28 for passengers,
those call taxis during the day time only. Baidu is better known as a

says that 300,000 Beijing residents can be a part of this experience.
A lot of work is being done on self-driving vehicles and experiments
have been done for a long time for a ride-sharing service. Humans
were seated in the driver’s seat. Now no human being is being
seated in the driving seat.
