I highly doubt that 'in the meantime' includes the present. Autonomous cars are science fiction, not fact.

This bridge actually seems like a reasonable place to put self-driving cars. It's a closed road with no intersections, just get in a car on one side, and jump off at the other. Just like a bus, but private and on demand.
I'm sure that the current generation of self driving technology could handle that fairly well.
well, the bridge does put a political pressure on that situation. One China in all senses would make it more convenient.
