An automatic driverless truck, manufactured by Changchun-based automaker FAW Jiefang Automotive Co, passed its navigation test last week. Analysts said that its driving assistance system would greatly improve the security level of heavy vehicles.

FAW Jiefang debuted the self-driving truck at the FAW Tech Center in Changchun, Jilin province, last week.

The vehicle is not only capable of recognizing obstacles, slowing down, making detours and speeding up, but is also able to react correctly to traffic lights, has adaptive cruise control, responds to remote commands and can successfully overtake other vehicles.
