Vol 5 Chapter 2541: 2540

From the company to the activity center and then home, this is equivalent to drawing a triangle on the city map. Coupled with the traffic in Anxi during the evening rush hour, this also makes the journey extraordinarily long.

Therefore, Yang Dongdong will choose to drive on the autopilot express road for a period of time every time, so that on the one hand, he can increase his speed and avoid congestion like ordinary roads; Hand over the vehicle to the automatic driving system to be responsible for driving, and he himself can take the opportunity to rest for a while.

After all, working all day is already tiring enough, and running around in the city is really exhausting.

It was another ordinary night, he successfully drove the car on the automatic driving fast loop, and the automatic driving system started. As for himself, he finally stretched himself and leaned comfortably on the chair.

In order to solve the increasingly congested traffic problem in Anxi, it is also to explore the application of autonomous driving technology in the city. So a few years ago, Wu Hao and the others reached a cooperation with the local government of Anxi to jointly change a fast loop in the city of Anxi into an automatic driving fast loop.

As the name suggests, this is a special road specially built and opened for self-driving cars. In order to ensure the safe and stable operation of this automatic driving loop, only automatic driving technology can be used on this automatic driving fast loop, and manual driving technology cannot be used.

That is to say, all vehicles on this automatic driving fast loop will automatically switch to automatic driving mode, and manual driving will be invalid. When the vehicle exits the automatic driving fast loop, the vehicle will automatically switch to the assisted driving mode.

The reason for this design is mainly to consider that there are too many uncertainties in manual driving, turning at will, changing the speed of the vehicle, and sometimes not complying with traffic regulations. Therefore, on the automatic driving fast loop, it is never other self-driving cars that threaten the safety of other vehicles, but someone who turns on the manual driving mode.

Therefore, there have been several major accidents one after another, so there are such regulations. As long as the vehicle enters the automatic driving fast loop, it will automatically switch to automatic driving mode, and manual driving cannot be switched.

In addition, the entire self-driving fast loop can actually be regarded as a huge system, which can monitor the status of each self-driving car in real time and provide them with accurate road condition navigation information to help them avoid lanes All obstacles, as well as other passing vehicles, and emergencies.

It stands to reason that these can be taken care of by the automatic driving system. However, the self-driving technologies on different cars are uneven, some are advanced, while others are relatively backward.

If you only rely on the automatic driving system on these cars, you will definitely not be able to guarantee the safe and stable operation of the entire line change. Therefore, this automatic driving quick change system is equivalent to allowing all vehicles to have very accurate road condition navigation information, so that even if the automatic driving system of these vehicles is relatively poor, it can still drive safely and smoothly on this automatic driving fast loop. .

Just when Yang Dongdong closed his eyes and chatted with his wife without saying a word, suddenly there was a beeping warning sound in the impression in the car.

"Warning, data connection error, for your safety, please take over the vehicle immediately and drive carefully."

what happened? Hearing the warning sound, his wife couldn't help asking while sitting in the back seat holding her daughter.

I don't know, maybe there will be no malfunction. Even though he said so, Yang Dongdong immediately put his hands on the steering wheel and looked at the situation outside.

What caught his eyes was that all the vehicles in front had their red tail lights on, slowing down, and there were also many panicked sounds from above the vehicles.

At the same time, the iron frame above the automatic driving fast loop line is no longer a green light, but a flashing red light.

Could it be that there was an accident ahead. Yang Dongdong drove the car carefully, then looked ahead and said.

Hearing Yang Dongdong's words, his wife also sat up and looked out. Seeing the situation outside, she couldn't help frowning and said, "Why is there an accident at this time, how long will it be blocked?"

I don't know, let's see the situation first, the exit is one kilometer ahead, let's drive out of the ring road first. Yang Dongdong thought about it for a while, and then made a decision.

I'm afraid everyone thinks so. His wife was full of worry.

No way, I'm stuck here, just wait slowly. Why don't you sleep for a while, and I'll call you when you get home. Yang Dongdong took a breath, then glanced at his wife's haggard face in the rearview mirror, and said immediately.

As for his wife, she shook her head: "I don't know what happened, how can I sleep here."

In this way, Yang Dongdong's vehicle followed the torrent of traffic, slowly moving forward. Although it is only one kilometer, it feels that the speed is very fast, and there are even some bumps and accidents on the road.

The two parties involved in the accident were standing on the driveway and arguing, and no one wanted to let it happen, which caused the road to be very congested.

"It's strange. The traffic command drone should have appeared at this time. Why is there no sign of the drone at this point?" Yang Dongdong asked in confusion while looking at the accident outside the window while driving the car forward.

The so-called traffic command UAV is actually a part of the entire urban intelligent transportation system, and it is also a huge basic service project jointly cooperated by Haoyu Technology, Anxi local government and traffic management department~www.readwn.com~This system is responsible for Responsible, including a lot, the most famous of which are the white intelligent traffic command drones with flashing red and blue police lights in Xu Dongdong's mouth.

The main function of this kind of intelligent traffic command UAV is to inspect the road conditions of the entire Anxi city, feel the accident scene at the first time, identify the accident scene and deal with the command and coordination. Some small accidents were solved under their command and guidance.

For some large-scale accidents, it can continue to monitor on-site. On the one hand, it can protect the site, and on the other hand, it can also transmit real-time dynamic information to the command center to facilitate command and rescue.

This kind of intelligent traffic command drone is usually very common, basically as long as an accident occurs, it can arrive at the scene within a minute or two. It's just that it's been such a long time today, why hasn't this intelligent traffic command drone appeared? This inevitably makes Yang Dongdong and other car owners puzzled.

What made them even more puzzled was that it didn't seem to be the congestion caused by a simple traffic accident, but that the entire automatic driving fast loop had collapsed and lost its function, otherwise so many vehicles would not be stuck here.
