JAKARTA A number of major automakers and technology industry groups have urged the Donald Trump administration to immediately take steps to accelerate the implementation of self-driving cars in the United States. They highlight various regulatory barriers that hinder the development of this technology.
The groups that are members of this alliance, including the Alliance For Automotive Innovation, Consumer Technology Association, and the Autonomous Vehicle Industry Association, sent a letter to the US Minister of Transportation, Sean total.
They asked the government to immediately implement a performance-based national framework. In addition, it also assigns the federal government as the only hardware regulator and software self-driving vehicles.

In the letter, they warned that without a clear policy, the US could lose leadership in this sector from China, which is increasingly aggressive in developing self-driving car technology.
"If the federal government fails to take steps to push for a reasonable autonomous vehicle policy, we will lose leadership in this very important economic sector to China," the statement said.
Currently, a number of automotive and technology companies such as General Motors and Tesla have developed self-driving vehicles. But they face various regulatory challenges that slow its implementation on the highway.
