Mr Melvin Yong Yik Chye asked the Minister for Transport
a. to date, how many autonomous vehicles (AV) have passed LTA's Milestone 2 test which allows AVs to be trialed in residential areas with a safety operator; and
b. whether any AV developer is on track to apply and pass the Milestone 3 test which allows AVs to be trialed with or without a safety operator.
Reply by Minister for Transport S Iswaran:
1. As of 31 March 2022, one autonomous vehicle (AV) has passed LTA's Milestone 2 test.
2. The Milestone 3 test is being developed by LTA. LTA will continue to shape the Milestone 3 requirements in tandem with AV technology development to ensure that roadworthiness and safety are not compromised.
