Dubai Tests First Self-Driving Pods in the World

 

 Public transportation has evolved greatly over the years. And while there are still some classic forms of transportation that still exist such as cabs, buses, and trains, new systems such as Uber and Lyft are disrupting the industry.  Now, Dubai is testing out an even more advanced system of self-driving pods.  The concept seems similar to an uber pool idea, except with no driver.  The pod concept seems to even have a bar inside where people can order food and beverages.  The autonomous pods can fit 10 passengers and can be coupled together as well. Check out the short video below to see these conceptual self-driving pods in action.
