Companies can now test self-driving cars on Michigan public roads without a driver or steering wheel under new laws that could push the state to the forefront of autonomous vehicle development.
The package of bills signed into law Friday comes with few specific state regulations and leaves many decisions up to automakers and companies like Google and Uber. But state officials say there are enough safeguards to keep the public out of danger.

Whether the vehicle has snow tire or not can effect performance. Black ice can throw the vehicle into an uncontrolled spin and crash. I don't think all the computer control in the world can help correct it in that case.
