In front of the live broadcast of the TV station and the Internet, the audience waited curiously, and those car companies and technology companies were also waiting silently.

Pengyun Auto's trial of driverless cars this time is of great significance. If it goes wrong, it will have a great negative impact; if it succeeds, it means a revolution in the way of driving!

On the camera, Jiang Xunmei, the president of Pengyun Automobile, was already in the car. She was also on board with Wu Changfeng, the director of the Pengcheng Traffic Management Bureau, a driving supervision safety officer and a TV host.

"Is this car safe? If there is an accident..." The audience watched the live broadcast and discussed in the message area or live broadcast barrage.

"The director of the traffic control bureau has all sat up. Shouldn't anything happen?"

"They're on XX Road. There are a lot of cars on this road! I don't dare to drive fast anymore!"

"Eat melons in the front row."

"This is Pengyun's driverless car. I heard that the intelligent system is provided by Hongxin? If it is good, I want to buy it too!"

In the car, Jiang Xunmei was answering the host's question.

"Our car is completely different from safety concerns, so to speak. A driverless system is 90 percent safer than a live action!"

"If the cars of the future use driverless systems, I think there will be far fewer traffic accidents and traffic jams!"

"It seems that President Jiang is very confident in the Pengyun driverless car, so what is the real situation? Now we can see it!" The host said, and the camera switched to the drone footage that was followed.

I saw that on the spacious road, the first Pengyun driverless car started to start. Turn on the left turn signal, start, enter the straight road... A series of operations are all automatically completed by artificial intelligence, which is very smooth.

When the car merges into the traffic flow, the real test of the driverless system is the place.

Inside the car, all the environment around the car can be seen through tiny cameras and virtual projections. Wu Changfeng was paying close attention, and he was still a little worried in his heart.

This time, he made the final decision to issue an L5 driverless test license to Pengyun Automobile.

However, the car runs extremely smoothly, and the speed, braking, lane change, and overtaking are all similar to those of an old driver for more than ten years.

"Wow, it's really similar to a real driver." The audience was surprised. In the picture, the driverless car can perfectly deal with various situations, and the response speed is quite fast!

"We can see that Pengyun's driverless car responds very quickly when dealing with various traffic situations, and it responds in almost a microsecond. When we ride, we hardly feel the body has Any shaking is as comfortable as sitting on your own sofa!" the host introduced.

The driverless car made a full lap around the prescribed route, taking more than two hours. On the Internet, many viewers are bored watching.

"It's boring, it's too stable!"

"I thought something was going to happen! It turned out to be nothing."

"It's okay to be fine, it shows that driverless technology has matured. The day when you can drive on the road without a driver's license is expected to come soon!"

"It's not easy to say, what will happen to the driverless car in an emergency?"

...

No matter what they think, on the first day, the Pengyun driverless car drove safely on the roads of Pengcheng for a whole day without any accidents.

The media has also covered the event, predicting the future of driverless cars.

This car and several other cars with L5 driverless test license plates will have to drive on the roads of Pengcheng day and night for a month to initially prove that this kind of driverless technology is desirable.

Half a month has passed quickly, and Pengyun's driverless car has been driving safely for half a month, during which there have been continuous media reports. The debate about whether self-driving cars can drive on the road is also getting heated, with both supporters and opponents.

At two o'clock in the morning, a Pengyun driverless car was driving smoothly on the road, and the test data was continuously fed back to the quantum brain. Behind the car, a car driver in his fifties was chewing betel nut and talking with a friend of the co-pilot.

"Don't you think it's strange, the car in front can be driven without a driver! If it becomes popular in the future, we won't have to be unemployed?" The driver said in a dissatisfied tone, "The current technology companies are just inventing something useless. What! It's enough to have our driver in the car, and we don't have a driverless car! Will they pay us wages when we lose our jobs?"

"That's right, I really want to smash that car!" His co-pilot was also a driver, but he was a black car driver and didn't work in a regular transportation company.

"Don't lose money if you smash it?" the trolley driver scolded, "I heard that this shit is quite expensive, and it has a camera on it, so I can't afford it!"

"Hey, you said, if their car collided, who should compensate?" the co-pilot suddenly asked.

"There were people in their car in the first few days, but now there is no one. If this happens, who will they be looking for?"

In the second phase of self-driving car testing, the safety driver is no longer in the car, which is approved by the Transportation Authority.

The car driver thought for a while and said, "I guess, let's look at the traffic rules. Whoever violates the traffic rules will lose money."

"That's not a good idea!" said the co-pilot. "There are many situations where traffic rules must be violated."

Both of them are veteran drivers for many years, and know that sometimes for safety reasons, they have to violate the traffic rules a little while driving. But the driverless car is not good, it is not a human, and it will generally obey the traffic rules.

But if for the sake of safety, it violates the traffic rules and has a safety accident, the problem at that time is very complicated.

"If there is such a situation, I guess I should ask the manufacturer to lose money!" The car driver said casually, "And they should have bought insurance, and the insurance company will pay. It seems to be written on the news."

"Let me search and see!" The co-pilot took out his mobile phone and searched, and he found relevant reports. It reads: "Pengyun driverless car has invested a high amount of insurance for each driverless car. In the event of a safety accident, Pengyun Automobile Co., Ltd. promises not to shirk its responsibility and protect the interests of the victim..."

"Huh?" Seeing this report, the co-pilot suddenly had an idea.

He immediately said, "Old Huang, you said, if this driverless car hits us, will it cost us money?"

"Of course you have to pay!" the car driver said, "but this driverless car is very stable, I don't think it will crash."

"Under normal circumstances, it's impossible, but what if it's a special case?"
