On 30 July 2014 the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills announced measures to facilitate the introduction of driverless vehicles on UK roads from January 2015.

@GreenBin69 It's terrible what has happened to Mr and Mrs Sethi but this isn't about one. Vince Cable, Jo Swinson & many other ministers denied there was a problem whilst thousands were getting caught up with this. The process is too slow and so pressure needs to be kept on post office.
