flyinguber Posted November 19, 2017 Report Share Posted November 19, 2017 This is unbelievable, what a master plan from Uber. All this licence show was actually a distraction fromt he main point, which is the driverless legal ground . Now they have it, UBer can bring it on UK roads without a problem. In 6-7 years almost everything will be gone, they will snap 50% of the market in the first year, special the UBerX market. Mr Hammond is due to announce regulation changes in Wednesday's Budget which will allow developers to apply to test driverless vehicles on UK roads. Asked about the potential loss of jobs for drivers, he said the country could not "hide from change" and the government had to equip people with the skills "to take up new careers". http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-42040856 basescu, prouber and george 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
