Gov. Brian Sandoval showed off the city's driverless shuttle to close out CES.  

The shuttle gave rides to representatives from over 20 different states.  

"I want Las Vegas, I want Nevada, to be the demonstration project for all the new great technology," Sandoval says. 

Back in November, the shuttle got in a small fender bender but has been driving smoothly ever since.  

"I think that's part of the process, that's why we allow for the testing," Sandoval says. 

Self-driving technology was a major theme at CES this year, where they also debuted a new self-driving taxi.
