UK Autodrive set standard for Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAV) projects in UK and internationally, demonstrating the world’s first multi-modal CAV across two cities. Great example of government, industry and university collaboration too - well done and thank you! 👏 – at Manhattan, NY

Reflections on today: key role for central government in designing+funding the competition that @UKAutodrive won; collaboration inevitable between competitor firms and countries, if only to set common standards; 🇬🇧 does these things very well - another reason to #InvestInGREAT – at Ipswich, England

Big turnout for @UKAutodrive conference and demonstration day in Milton Keynes. Great example of collaboration between industry (including big inward investors and big exporters), government (central and local) and top 🇬🇧 universities.

Great experience @michtanfield I look forward 2 these becoming part of our cities in future. Top speed 18mph. The man demonstrating the vehicle said the fast braking was tested & shown 2 work earlier when a demonstrator walked in front of it. @innovateuk @UKAutodrive @aurrigotech
