General Motor denies trying to freeze out other brands and remove competition of autonomous vehicles. Legislators in four other states say that General Motor asks sponsorships for bills that would rule out competitors.

According to NOLA, the bill passed is a blueprint for the introduction of fully self-driving cars that are in demand now. One requirement would be that autonomous cars must be owned by an automaker.

This puts self-driving technology like Uber and Alphabet's Waymo fear of the company in being shut down. Uber and Waymo are not manufacturers of cars. Also, other automakers developing autonomous cars could be shut down as well because they focus more on a Level 3 time of vehicle where a driver must be ready in order to take the wheel in a certain situation.

Furthermore, GAS2 writes that General Motor's request began in Michigan. The bill drafted had input from General Motors. It is known as the SAVE Act, or only companies can build automobiles without driving controls such as steering wheels and pedals. Waymo did not approve of this bill as it removes Americans' choice in what car to buy and choice to ride inside a safer car.

Now that General Motors has passed a bill removing other technology companies making products in the autonomous vehicle business, also other companies that are making Level 3 vehicles are also at risk. The American company is focusing on making a hybrid pickup truck by the end of 2018, more of a moving backward rather than forward in the new age of vehicles.

Donald Trump questioned why only a few American cars are being sold in Europe with a German official answering in order to solve that problem, simply "build better cars." With the American company trying to remove competitors, it may only slow the innovation and production of a more safer vehicle when it comes to autonomous driving.
