In this deal with Volvo, the US will now be able to compete with other companies in the automobile division in Silicon Valley. Currently, Silicon Valley's big technology companies have started to compete for auto cars.
Uber has made its own division of auto car. Software created by the division will be associated with Volvo's car.
Volvo authorities said in a statement that they will supply the 90-seater EVA 90S fleet of automated technology between 2019 and 2021 in accordance with the agreement. They will supply 24,000 cars in total. The automated driving technology that is being used is still not ready. The technology is being developed under Uber's Advanced Technologies Group.

In the United States, at Temp, Arizona and Pittsburgh, a driver was seen sitting in front of the car during the examination. Driver failed to control the vehicle if the vehicle failed.
