Amazon Zoox New Launch: Amazon's Zoox Robotaxi has received approval for limited commercial operations in the US, but agencies will keep a close watch on safety regulations and technical flaws.
Amazon Zoox New Launch: Now the need for a driver to drive a car is about to end. AI will do the driving itself. Yes, recently, Amazon's company Zoox has achieved a major success in America. The company's driverless robotaxi has received approval from the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. This news clearly shows that technology has advanced so much that driverless vehicles are also going to be seen on the roads. Let's know the complete details about it and what conditions have been imposed after this approval.
Zoox RoboTaxi gets approval
America's NHTSA has given permission to Amazon's company Zoox to use its unique Robotaxi for limited commercial use. NHTSA official Jonathan Morrison said that Zoox has been given permission to run 2,500 vehicles every year for the next two years, which will first start from the city of Las Vegas. Let us tell you that this vehicle of Zoox looks like an electric carriage, in which the seats on both sides are placed facing each other, just like in an auto and e-rickshaw; not only this, its top speed is around 120 kilometers per hour.
These questions are being raised regarding security
However, safety concerns are also being raised regarding driverless vehicles. NHTSA has already instructed autonomous vehicle manufacturers to carefully check for any glitches to ensure that robot taxis do not cause problems anywhere. The reason behind this is that many problems related to autonomous vehicles have been reported, such as in some cases robot taxis have been found involved in incidents like passing by school buses, entering construction zones, stopping on flooded roads, and violating traffic rules. This is why Zoox had to recall 105 of its vehicles some time ago and update the software. In view of these problems, Morrison clearly stated that if such problems arise in the future, the agency will not hesitate to take action.
