Singapore is one of the few places where residents can already order self-driving taxi rides -- albeit with a test driver behind the wheel to guarantee safety.
The city-state's openness to new technologies make it an attractive destination for companies with futuristic visions. NuTonomy, a self-driving car company from Boston, first started giving rides in August 2016. Similar to what's happening in Pittsburgh, a limited number of self-driving rides are already offered in restricted areas.
NuTonomy plans toroll outa commercial service in Singapore in 2018.
