Our Reading

The launch follows a familiar script.

Avride’s autonomous driving system is under scrutiny after multiple crashes. The NHTSA is investigating one minor injury and over a dozen crashes. Avride’s tech is supposed to improve road safety, but it seems to be causing more problems. The company’s silence on the matter is deafening. Another “innovation” that’s putting users at risk.
