Additionally, Meyhofer made it clear that Uber is not shutting down its self-driving car program. It is looking forward to bringing its autonomous cars back on public roads in the coming months.
Furthermore, he said, “In the meantime, we remain focused on our top-to-bottom safety review.” Former National Transportation Board (NTSB) Chairman Christopher Hart is advising Uber regarding its overall safety culture.
Meanwhile, the NTSB’s preliminary report indicated that all aspects of Uber’s self-driving system were operating normally at the time of the accident. The backup engaged the steering wheel and started breaking less than a second before the impact.
