Russian technology company Yandex has begun testing autonomous driving technology without a test driver behind the wheel in self-driving cars in the Yasenevo district of Moscow.

A new stage of technology testing will allow the car to move autonomously in the traffic flow of a big city.

It is reported that during the test there is still a passenger inside the car, but he cannot use the gas and brake pedals or the steering wheel. To do this, the driver in the passenger seat has a special E-stop device that allows you to stop the car.
