AUSTIN (Reuters) -Self-driving startup Argo AI on Tuesday said it was having driverless vehicles carry employees around streets of Miami, Florida and Austin, Texas, noting that commercial applications would follow after an unspecified time.
Argo, backed by Ford Motor Co and Volkswagen AG, has tested its robotaxis on public roads in both cities for several years, but had previously included safety drivers behind the wheel.
