In the coming months, the tests of the self-propelled system should begin again. In March, a pedestrian died in the state of Arizona while the driver of a self-driving did not look in the street.
Uber temporarily suspended testing of its autonomous cars at several locations in North America. Cars have not been activated in the crash according to a report by the US NTSB Traffic Safety Authority. The driver must intervene in the case and take control of the car – but the system is not designed to warn the driver.
