The four-metre-long “shop” uses an advanced form of GPS (DGPS) cameras and it lysbaserte “radarsystemet” Lidar.

It means that the first “pugger” the way it should run. Later stops and starts the bus dependent on what kind of commands it receives and what are the obstacles that may occur in the planned roadway.”

Positive transport minister
Aporpos legislation, claims transport minister Kjetil Solvik Olsen that he’ll do what it takes for the authorities not put a stop to the development:

“We’re working in these days with the rules and laws that will be open for self-driving vehicles can be tested out on public roads. Norway is far advancement in digitization and the use of new technology, and we should be far forward in the track in this field also.
