Driverless shuttle launches in Orlando — and crashes two days later

By Emily Crane

Not off to a good start.

A brand-new, self-driving shuttle bus suddenly crashed into another carrier in Orlando, Fla. — just two days after the shuttle service officially hit the streets.

The SWAN shuttle — short for Shuttling with Autonomous Navigation — collided with a full-size bus in the city’s downtown area Tuesday, cops said.

The crash was caught on camera by a passenger testing out the city’s hyped new service.

Well, at least they can't blame a woman driver.  Maybe a woman programmer, though.  :shrug:
