WASHINGTON: The US Senate Commerce Committee will hold a Nov 20 hearing on the testing and deployment of self-driving vehicles that will include top US safety officials, as Congress has struggled to pass legislation on autonomous vehicles.
The hearing will come one day after the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) meets to determine the probable cause of a March 2018 Uber Technologies Inc self-driving vehicle crash that killed a pedestrian in Arizona.
