The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in the U.S. has initiated an investigation into Zoox, the self-driving technology company owned by Amazon, subsequent to two separate incidents involving crashes of its robotic taxis. The probe is aimed at determining the cause of the accidents and if there were any safety lapses in the vehicles’ technology. It’s crucial to understand that no verdict has been reached yet, and investigations like these are standard practice for incidents involving vehicles with autonomous technology.
