Toyota and Aurora Are Testing Self-Driving Vehicles in Texas

About a year after announcing plans to partner on the development of self-driving vehicles, Toyota and Aurora Innovation have put their prototypes on the road.

During the tests conducted with the adapted Siennas, the vehicles must be able to make U-turns and lane changes, and be able to merge into traffic by taking a freeway ramp. The prototypes must also react properly to irregular situations, such as avoiding vehicles on the shoulder of the road, maneuvering through a construction zone and dealing with bad weather.

Moving to Level 5, the ultimate goal, the vehicle independently does everything a human operator could.
