HANDOUT - From the outside, the Mercedes van looks unspectacular, but in this test vehicle from the car parts supplier ZF there are no pedals, steering wheel or driver - the van completely drives itself. Photo: ZF/dpa-tmn - only for use in accordance with contractual agreement
The first autonomous buses are already rolling on the roads, and from the experts' point of view, this is just the beginning. But how does it feel when the machine takes command?
The car glides off quietly. Only the pump of the steering mechanism can be heard. This Mercedes van has neither pedals nor a steering wheel. It does have a joystick and an emergency stop button in the centre console – just in case. Otherwise, this ZF test vehicle drives itself, as if by magic.
