Finding out if a vehicle has self-driving functions
The list of self-driving vehicles only records vehicle model or variant to help determine if individual vehicles should be registered as self-driving on the DVLA database.
At present, there are no self-driving vehicles listed for use in Great Britain. This information is therefore not yet available on DVLA’s vehicle checker.
If a vehicle has been registered as self-driving, then you must understand how to use the vehicle’s functions and identify the ones that are capable of self-driving before engaging them.
A self-driving vehicle may contain driver assistance features, such as lane tracking, cruise control or automatic start-stop, that are not self-driving.
