### Install Steps
Navigate to the `/bin` directory:
```bash
cd /bin
```
Download the specific version of ChromeDriver (replace with the latest version if necessary):
```bash
wget https://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/102.0.5005.61/chromedriver_linux64.zip
```
Unzip the downloaded file:
```bash
unzip chromedriver_linux64.zip
```
Remove the zip file after extraction:
```bash
rm chromedriver_linux64.zip
```
Make the `chromedriver` executable:
```bash
chmod +x chromedriver
```
Move the `chromedriver` binary to `/bin`:
```bash
sudo mv chromedriver /bin/
```
Update the `PATH` environment variable:
```bash
export PATH=$PATH:/bin/chromedriver
```
## Verify Installation
To verify the installation was successful, check the ChromeDriver version:
```bash
chromedriver --version
```
