While Google's autonomous fleet of robot cars prowls Silicon Valley and gets all the press, the first, or one of the first, truly autonomous vehicles you may ride in could be something like this: The humble, people-moving Navia.

AN ELDERLY driver has been fined more than £1,000 and banned for a year after he was caught reading a map at the wheel.
