Electronic enthusiasts eight o'clock: Beijing time on March 28th news, this Monday, Uber driverless cars re-opened the road. Three days ago, the Uber driverless car crashed in Tempe, Arizona, and the autopilot test was temporarily suspended, but now the test project restart shows the company's confidence.
A Uber spokesperson who did not want to be named said in an interview that after a brief investigation, Uber driverless cars resumed operations in three cities: Tempe, San Francisco and Pittsburgh.
On Friday, Uber suspended operations in three cities due to a crash. In the event of an accident, a human-powered car did not give way to Uber, when Uber was ready to turn and collided. The Uber car was driven in an automatic driving mode at the time of the accident. Tempe Police Department spokesperson Josie Montenegro said in an email: "The cars crashed together, causing the driverless car to roll over and no one was seriously injured."
In the front of the Uber Volvo SUV, the driver and engineer were seated in the front seat, and there were no passengers in the back.
Tempe police detective Lily Duran said the police may issue a full incident report later this week. She also said that the Uber car did not go wrong when the collision occurred. According to pictures and videos posted on Twitter, two cars were slightly damaged when the accident occurred, and the Voll SUV turned to one side. Uber claims that these images do appear to be from the scene of the accident.
Pittsburgh police spokesperson Sonya Toler said there had been no reports of a Uber driverless car crash in Pittsburgh. Since September last year, Uber has tested driverless cars in Pittsburgh.
Driverless experts believe that a similar crash will inevitably occur, but with the advancement of driverless technology, everyone on the road will benefit.
Hod Lipson, a professor of mechanical engineering and robotics at Columbia University, believes that the number of people killed in traffic accidents worldwide is as high as 23,000 a week. He added: "The farther away the driverless car is, the safer it is. The safety record of humans has basically remained stable over the years. Some people think that human drivers make driving safer. This is just a kind of False comfort, this understanding may lead people astray."
