2 Driverless Cars Crashed Going 155 mph. That Could Be a Good Thing

Only two of five vehicles finished the race around a notoriously difficult Formula 1 track, exposing what happens when autonomous systems meet blind corners, sensor failures, and physics. The grandstands erupted with shock as engineers clutched their heads in the paddock. One driverless race car, produced by the company PoliMove, slammed into Unimore's slowing vehicle in an event held by the Abu Dhabi Autonomous Racing League (A2RL). At the famous racing track in Imola, Italy, Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari, both cars crashed in an area called Rivazza. This is the circuit's final sequence, made up of corners that are notoriously difficult to navigate.
