Fortunately, none of the accidents caused most serious situation such injuring passengers or massive damage to cars. Google has released its own crash report early in this month on the behalf of curious observers and Google has its own team of companies and working for their own self driving car model.
According to Google’s report, their all 23 vehicles covered the distance of 1.8 million miles on the highways of California. These cars traveled at least 1.1 million in self-driving mode and almost 12 guard bumpers and screens damaged in that time span. The law and regulations for the deployment of dominant vehicles is still under development and the regulations will define those requirements. The vehicle manufacturers should meet these requirements to certify that their dominant vehicle has finally been tested and meet the specific safety requirements and the car is ready for the public and to move on the public roads. California DMV conducted a public workshop for the deployment of regulations in the month of March 2014 and a second public workshop also took place in the month of January 2015. These public workshops attracted the interested public on a focused discussion for the specifications and requirements so it should be operated safely by the general public on the public streets.
