House lawmakers are set to vote as soon as Wednesday on a bill that would allow the likes of Ford, Google and Uber to test more self-driving cars on U.S. roads.

The bill, called the SELF DRIVE Act, would permit automakers and tech giants to obtain exceptions to federal safety rules — the official U.S. standards that govern everything from steering wheels to seat belts — so that they can test as many as 100,000 experimental vehicles over time.
