Self-driving vehicles, also known as autonomous cars, use a combination of Artificial Intelligence (AI), sensors, cameras, GPS, and machine learning to navigate roads safely without human input. These vehicles are designed to reduce accidents, improve traffic flow, and make driving more comfortable and efficient. Globally, companies like Tesla, Waymo, and Mercedes-Benz are leading the way — and India is quickly catching up with research, policy discussions, and pilot projects focused on autonomous mobility solutions.
