Baidu's "Radish Running" autonomous driving taxi operated by Hunan Apollo Zhixing recently officially opened demonstration operations in Xiangjiang New District, Hunan, providing the public with autonomous driving toll services, and opened the pilot conclusion of Changsha's commercialization of autonomous driving. On August 15, the reporter went to Hunan Xiangjiang New District for the first time to experience autonomous driving taxis.
