The department for transport has announced its intention to help the UK become a world leader in driverless technology by giving the go-ahead to public trials of AI-led vehicles.

The department made the announcement on Tuesday (10 February) admitting it will have to update the Highway Code to accommodate driverless motors before spring so they can be tested in public.

The first trials will include the BAE wildcat in Bristol;
