The other day my dad went to Shenzhen and when he was there, he sent me some pictures. One of the pictures was about a car without a driver driving on the street. Is it natural to express this idea like "My dad today sent me a picture of an unmanned-driving car on the Shenzhen street"?

In AmE we are more likely to say self-driving rather than driverless.
