According to driving statistics published by California, Uber is the worst of six major self-driving car companies testing its vehicles in the state.

The minicab firm experienced a "disengagement" - when the automated system forces the human driver/passenger to take over control of the vehicle - once every mile driven, with a total of 20,354 miles clocked up before it was banned from testing in the state.
