PhotoSAN FRANCISCO — Apple is rethinking what it plans to do about self-driving cars, just as other big tech companies appear ready to plow ahead with competing efforts. Apple is not the only big tech company pursuing autonomous driving technology. Tesla has a self-driving feature within its cars that has come under scrutiny in recent months after a fatal accident was connected to its use. Separately, Uber, in a limited test in Pittsburgh next week, plans to start picking up passengers in self-driving cars. In addition, self-driving cars could change the traditional notions of public transportation and car ownership.
