Chinese autonomous vehicle company WeRide has received the green light to test its driverless vehicles with passengers in California. As of August 2, WeRide holds two permits from the California Public Utilities Commission: a drivered pilot permit and a driverless pilot permit, but the permits do not yet allow WeRide to charge passengers for rides. A spokesperson from the CPUC said that WeRide is permitted to test in San Jose and nearby areas.
