NHTSA Investigates Waymo Robotaxis Over Safety Around School Buses

Article 0 Comments The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said on Monday it has opened a preliminary probe into about 2,000 Waymo self-driving vehicles after reports that the company’s robotaxis may have failed to follow traffic safety laws around stopped school buses. The probe is the latest federal review of self-driving systems as regulators scrutinize how driverless technologies interact with pedestrians, cyclists and other road users. NHTSA said the Office of Defects Investigation opened the review after flagging a media report describing an incident in which a Waymo autonomous vehicle did not remain stationary when approaching a school bus with its red lights flashing, stop arm deployed and crossing control arm extended. The report said the Waymo vehicle initially stopped beside the bus then maneuvered around its front, passing the extended stop arm and crossing control arm while students were disembarking. A Waymo spokesperson said the company has “already developed and implemented improvements related to stopping for school buses and will land additional software updates in our next software release.” The company added “driving safely around children has always been one of Waymo’s highest priorities. In the event referenced, the vehicle approached the school bus from an angle...

LPG-Laden Tanker on Fire off Yemen, EU’s Naval Force Says

Article 0 Comments The LPG-laden tanker MV Falcon was on fire and adrift on Saturday off the coast of Yemen, after it reported an explosion that forced members of its crew to abandon the vessel, the European Union’s naval force Aspides said in a statement. The cause of the explosion was unclear, Aspides said, adding that 15% of the Cameroon-flagged vessel was on fire, according to initial indications. Due to the risk of further explosions, since the tanker was fully loaded with liquefied petroleum gas, Aspides said it had advised vessels in the area to keep a safe distance from the carrier. “The fire onboard is increasing,” Aspides said in a statement. “MV Falcon represents a navigational hazard. Everyone in the area must exercise caution.” An operation was in progress to rescue its 26 crew members. So far, 24 seafarers have been recovered by two merchant vessels sailing nearby. One of the ships, the MV Veda, was taking those rescued to Djibouti, escorted by a Greek frigate. Two crew members are reported missing, Aspides said. The MV Falcon was traveling from Oman’s Sohar Port to Djibouti, British security firm Ambrey said earlier. The explosion occurred as it was sailing 113...
