There are now 39 companies on the list of authorized testers of autonomous vehicles in California.
The list, which I believe is in chronological order, starts with big automotive companies that everybody recognizes, and then includes many smaller, anonymous startups toward the end. Udacity is pretty much in the middle 🙂
An interesting exercise would be to dive into this list and figure out where each company is with their self-driving car development efforts.
