Autonomous vehicles will represent 25% of Dubai's fleet
With its new "self-driving transport strategy", Dubai intends to replace 25% of its fleet with autonomous vehicles by 2030.
It is the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) which is responsible for implementing this project. The RTA's mission is to :
- study the technical aspects and standards applicable to autonomous vehicles
- set up the necessary infrastructure for this type of vehicle
- enforce the regulation
The 25% rate of autonomous vehicles will allow Dubai to achieve 22 billion AED (5.98 billion USD) of annual savings. To reach this objective, the Emirate intends to achieve substantial savings through a better transport efficiency, a reduction in the number and cost of accidents and a decrease in pollution taxes.
