The statistics show that we humans are bad drivers. Maybe the robots could do a better job.

Not you, or me for that matter, but most of us are pretty bad drivers. Between speeding and using our cell phones, it is not safe out there. #Driverlesscars might be the best thing to ever happen to us.

Waymo self-driving vehicle probe closed by NHTSA with no further action Investing.com -- The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has closed its 14-month investigation into Alphabet’s (NASDAQ:GOOGL) Waymo self-driving vehicles without taking further action, the agency announced Friday. The investigation, which began in May 2024, was prompted by 22 reports of Waymo robotaxis allegedly violating traffic safety laws or showing "unexpected behavior." Among these reports were 17 collisions involving the autonomous vehicles. In its decision to close the probe, NHTSA cited two recalls that Waymo had already issued, as well as the agency’s own analysis of available data related to the incidents. This article was generated with the support of AI and reviewed by an editor. For more information see our T&C.
