Continuing our coverage of international news on automated driving in adverse weather (Part I here) we try to give you an overview over the most important, most interesting and even the most obscure articles and features that international news outlets have published in the recent months. Due to the season, there is significantly less coverage of snow and fog and the like and a clear focus in the media on sensor technology and its impact and importance for driving autonomously in all weather conditions.
