## Key points

- US regulators propose cyan lights to identify autonomous vehicles.
- The lights would be optional and steady, visible from all sides.
- GM plans new vehicle technology and highway automation for 2028.

## Summary

US safety regulators have proposed a common way to show when an autonomous vehicle is driving without a human monitoring the road. The proposal suggests cyan lights, which could make the vehicles easier for the public to identify as rules adapt to new designs.

The lights would be steady and visible from the front, rear and sides, but they would not be mandatory. The article also reports that GM plans to debut a new vehicle computing system and conversational AI in 2028, alongside hands-off, eyes-off highway driving; separately, Rivian has acquired UK AI startup Third Dimension to support simulation.
