Autonomous vehicles.

Existing law authorizes an autonomous vehicle to be operated on public roads for testing purposes by a driver who possesses the proper class of license for the type of vehicle being operated if specified requirements are met, including that the autonomous vehicle is being operated on roads in the state solely by employees, contractors, or other persons designated by the manufacturer of the autonomous technology. Existing law defines "autonomous technology" and "autonomous vehicle" for those purposes. This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes to those provisions
