Ohio to invest $15M on 35-mile self-driving truck test
DUBLIN, Ohio (AP) — Gov. John Kasich (KAY'-sik) says the state will invest $15 million to support research in self-driving highway technology along a 35-mile stretch of an Ohio road.
Officials say that four-lane section of Route 33 northwest of Columbus will become a corridor where technologies can be safely tested in real-life traffic, aided by a fiber-optic cable network and sensor systems slated for installation next year.
