Zox becomes first steerage-free robotaxi in US

Zox, a subsidiary of Amazon, has received the first-ever U.S. approval to operate a driverless robotaxi without a steering wheel. This marks a pioneering step in autonomous transportation. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration granted it a permit to provide limited commercial services in Las Vegas, with the possibility of charging passengers starting soon. This approval comes after a specific exemption from federal regulations that previously required manual control devices. It is an important milestone toward expanding the use of autonomous robotaxi vehicles in the United States, with expectations to allow the deployment of up to 2,500 vehicles annually over the next two years. The company aims to enhance safety standards, increase oversight of vehicle safety, and improve incident response, while continuing to test and develop this technology on a limited basis.
