Whoop, Uber has released its first set of self-driving cars in Pittsburgh, USA.

While they officially announced their plans at the end of August – HERE – it is now a real thing and is the first time that self-driving cars have been so freely available to the U.S. public.

It’s going to be an interesting ride into the future.

The first offering from the transport company will be a four-seater car. Passengers will sit in the front of the car behind the wheel, just in case the car needs help.

I would love to see how this works when someone is drunk. The sheer first-time amazement would be enough to put anyone in danger – even the car.

Here’s more about the cars and why Uber chose Pittsburgh for its pilot:
