https://techcrunch.com/2017/10/12/waymo-self-driving-safety-report/ >Waymo launched a campaign earlier this week alongside partners including the National Safety Council to help explain why it believes that its pursuit of autonomous driving is a means to safer roads. Now, it’s releasing its first ever Safety Report, which offers some more detail on the procedures and technology it uses to ensure safety in deploying its autonomous fleet. >The 42 page document includes a summary overview of how Waymo’s cars function at a basic level, including under what conditions they work (and are designed to work exclusively) and how they ‘fail’ back to a safe stop as a final fallback. It also explains what happens after a crash should their be one, and what kind of data is recored, as well as what measures are taken in terms of cybersecurity on the Waymo vehicles.
