Waymo suspende robotaxis en varias ciudades por inundaciones

Atlanta, Austin, Dallas, weather, technology, transport, accident, Mono County, Warning

Waymo ha pausado su servicio de robotaxis en múltiples ciudades debido a inundaciones y condiciones climáticas severas. - El servicio se detuvo en Atlanta, Austin, Dallas y Houston después de que un vehículo desocupado quedara atascado en una carretera inundada en Atlanta.

- San Antonio ya estaba en pausa desde abril por un incidente similar, y la compañía retiró 3,791 vehículos por un problema de software relacionado con inundaciones. - También se suspendió temporalmente el acceso a autopistas en San Francisco, Los Ángeles, Phoenix y Miami para integrar aprendizajes sobre zonas de construcción.

- Waymo está bajo dos investigaciones de la NHTSA por incidentes previos, incluyendo un accidente con un niño en Santa Mónica. La compañía afirma que la seguridad es prioridad y que monitoreará el clima para reanudar el servicio, mientras expertos señalan la necesidad de más datos y simulaciones para manejar condiciones climáticas adversas.
