Uber launches driverless car service in Pittsburgh today

Some residents in the US city of Pittsburgh now will have the choice of going about their day in an Uber that drives itself.

The web-based ride service has launched its driverless car service to jump ahead of Detroit auto giants and Silicon Valley rivals with technology that could revolutionise transportation.

A fleet of cars laden with lasers, cameras and other sensors — but no one's hands on the wheel — will be deployed on the roads of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, the first time self-driving cars have been so freely available to the US public.

Four of the Ford Fusion hybrids, with their ungainly rooftop load of technology, will be deployed to a select customers on Wednesday, with the company showing at least a dozen more ready to put on the streets.

And Uber is well-advanced in developing a self-drive car with Sweden's Volvo, expected to become the mainstay of the program in the near future.
