Uber confirmed news of the self-driving car project in February of this year but has kept its project under wraps until last week. An Uber-branded test vehicle, a Ford sedan, was spotted for the first time in Pittsburgh. The $40 billion company aims to develop its own fleet of self-driving taxis that will eventually replace its human drivers, the most expensive part of their car service.
