contents Teleoperated driving enables remote human intervention in autonomous vehicles, addressing challenges in complex driving environments. However, its effectiveness depends on ultra-low latency, high-reliability communication. This paper evaluates teleoperated driving over 5G networks, analyzing key performance metrics such as glass-to-glass (G2G) latency, RTT and steering command delay. Using a real-world testbed with a Kia Soul EV and a remote teleoperation platform, we assess the feasibility and limitations of 5G-enabled teleoperated driving. Our system achieved an average G2G latency of 202ms and an RTT of 47ms highlighting the G2G latency as the critical bottleneck. The steering control proved to be mostly accurate and responsive. Finally, this paper provides recommendations and outlines future work to improve future teleoperated driving deployments for safer and more reliable autonomous mobility.
