After an Uber self-driving car struck and killed a homeless woman in Tempe, Arizona on March 18, Toyota has announced that it will be temporarily suspending tests on its own self-driving car technology, which it calls Chauffeur, Bloomberg reported.
“Because we feel the incident may have an emotional effect on our test drivers, we have decided to temporarily pause our Chauffeur mode testing on public roads,” the Japanese car giant told Bloomberg today. (Uber has suspended all self-driving car tests, too.)
