Carnegie Mellon University's Tartan Racing will enter a driverless Chevy Tahoe in the
Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency Urban Challenge scheduled for November 2007. The race will see which autonomous vehicle can best travel 60 miles of streets in a mock urban setting. To succeed, vehicles must drive completely on their own — without drivers or remote control — and finish the course within six hours. Cars must stay in their lanes, negotiate intersections, drive in traffic and follow rules of the road with only computers at the wheel.
