內華達州的車輛管理局正式批准了 Google 在該州公路上測試無人駕駛汽車的牌照申請 ，成為美國第一個允許無人駕駛汽車上路的州。Google 獲得的牌照是紅色底白字和一個代表無限的符號，車輛管理局局長在聲明中表示，無限符號最能代表「未來汽車」，而紅色則較容易被公眾和執法機關辨識。
暫時只有 Google 獲發牌照，當其他汽車製造商開始向大眾提供無人駕駛汽車時，牌照顏色將會換為綠色。早前 Google 展示出一位住在美國加州的盲人 Steve Mahan 登上無人駕駛車，載著 Steve 去了快餐店和乾洗店，體驗駕駛的樂趣。
Self-Driving Car Test: Steve Mahan (Audio Described)

We announced our self-driving car project in 2010 to make driving safer, more enjoyable, and more efficient. Having safely completed over 200,000 miles of computer-led driving, we wanted to share one of our favorite moments. Here's Steve, who joined us for a special drive on a carefully programmed route to experience being behind the wheel in a whole new way. We organized this test as a technical experiment, but we think it's also a promising look at what autonomous technology may one day deliver if rigorous technology and safety standards can be met.

Fully autonomous driving has always been the goal of our project, because we think this could improve road safety and help lots of people who can't drive.
