Although autonomous vehicle have not been widely allowed to drive on the road, they are widely used in other aspects, such as low-speed delivery, logistics in the factory, etc. However, the perception and recognition ability of automatic driving to road conditions and traffic environment is far inferior to that of human drivers, and accidents may also occur on the road.
Recently, a video uploaded by netizens showed that a "driverless" car was directly crushed by a high-speed train when it crossed the railway track** The car was immediately crushed into slag, and the battery in the car exploded and caught fire, and the car was completely scrapped.
It is reported that the car crushed is starship's self driving small delivery truck. It is estimated that starship can only admit full responsibility for the accident.
In addition, some car owners have had accidents with this kind of unmanned self driving delivery car before. According to reports, a female car owner in San Francisco, Texas said that last September, a starship robot hit her car at a red light and caused a loss of $2600. Subsequently, starship paid for her car repair.
Starship was founded in Estonia in 2014. With the efforts of its founders Ahti heinla and Janus Friis, the company has conducted a large number of unmanned delivery experiments in dozens of cities around the world, covering delivery services such as food and other small packages**
Its design puts in all kinds of "driverless" delivery cars, which can send and receive express mail. For example, after users open the Starship deliveries app and fill in relevant information, they will then receive a special personal address for delivery through "trolley".
