Ford going further with autonomous data sharing

In the world of driverless cars, the one thing we hear about time and time again is safety. And that comes down to testing. Even though we may take it for granted once we've got our license, driving is an incredibly complex skill. For vehicles to manage the many processes involved in driving autonomously they need to be exposed to all imaginable scenarios and be programmed to deal with the outcomes. That's precisely why some autonomous test models drive as many as 20 million miles a day in simulated environments.
