Mercedes-Benz gets world's first approval for automated driving system
On Thursday, Mercedes-Benz became the world's first automaker to gain regulatory approval for a so-called "level 3" self-driving system, perhaps better called a "conditionally automated driving system." It's called Drive Pilot, and it debuts next year in the new S-Class and EQS sedans, allowing the cars to drive themselves at up to 37 mph (60 km/h) in heavy traffic on geofenced stretches of highway.
