But why on Coventry road?
Jaguar Land Rover Autonomous Vehicle Research Manager said :

“The Coventry Ring Road is known for its complicated slip roads and exits. It makes for very challenging conditions, especially when under pressure in the rush hour”

“Our self-driving car is not impacted by the same pressure, frustrations or fatigue that a driver may experience and so it’s capable of turning a potentially very stressful situation into a completely stress-free one”

This test is part of the £20 million “UK Autodrive” government-funded project which ends this month after a three-year programme.

So No hands No problem on any kind of roads with this futuristic self-driving Range Rover sport…
