As autonomous vehicles will become more and more a part of our existence, it will be interesting to follow their development and test sites which can be found on the Nation Highway Traffic Safety Adminsitration's site.

Here are a couple of screen snaps of the Detroit sites with an example [Farmington Hills] showing details if you click on a site.

The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration on Wednesday launched its autonomous vehicle online tracking tool, a map that shows some of the places where the vehicles are being tested on public roads.

The map is a pilot program that now shows testing in 17 cities across the nation, and the safety agency says it will grow as companies submit more information."

“The more information the public has about the on-road testing of automated driving systems, the more they will understand the development of this promising technology,” Deputy NHTSA Administrator James Owens said in a statement.
