Seoul Now Operating 5 Autonomous Bus Routes

This might be interesting to check out the next time I am in Seoul:

Self-driving transit buses are expanding their presence in Seoul, as the city introduced, Wednesday, a new route in Yeouido, western Seoul. It is the city’s fifth autonomous bus service route.

At 12 p.m., a Hyundai Solati, a diesel minibus accommodating up to 13 people, took to the road around the National Assembly and it drove a round trip of 3.1 kilometers that featured six stops around the parliament. 

Two autonomous buses run every 30 minutes from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. from Monday to Friday, but they do not operate on statutory holidays and weekends. 

Those who want to ride the bus need a smartphone app called TAP!, where users can pre-book a ride by setting their departure and destination.

As long as they aren’t as fiery as those French buses, it might be fun.

“As long as they aren’t as fiery as those French buses, it might be fun.”

They only burst into flames when near Muslims. Keep the Muslims away from your busses (and your country) and you will not have many problems.
