If it can make it there, it can make it anywhere

Mobileye, the company that specialises in chips for vision-based autonomous vehicles, is now testing its AVs in New York City. This is a bit tricky because New York has harsh restrictions around such testing.

The announcement was made by Amnon Shashua, president and CEO of the Intel-owned company, at an event in the city on Tuesday. Shashua said the company is currently testing two autonomous vehicles in New York City but plans to increase that number to seven "in the next few months".

New York has all sorts of restrictions against such testing because ur has some of the most dangerous, congested, and poorly managed streets in the world. It has all sorts of obstacles that make it difficult to navigate including construction workers, pedestrians, bicyclists, and double- and triple-parked cars. So a bit like Rome or Naples on a good day, but not as bad as Sofia.
