Boston seaport becoming a testbed for autonomous vehicles

Private parties owning lots in Boston's Raymond L. Flynn Marine Park have been enabling autonomous vehicle testing on their property for the past year. The land was paved, yet undeveloped. This made it a perfect testbed for autonomous vehicles. This enabled companies working to perfect autonomous car technologies to test their creations in a controlled environment away from normal traffic. Tom Miller, the vice president of Kavanaugh Advisory Group, told the Boston Herald: "We think it's a great adventure, we think it's a great idea, and if an opportunity comes and we have a location where we could do it again, we'd do it in a heartbeat."
