Pony.ai Recalls Autonomous Driving Software After California Crash

In October 2021, a Pony.ai autonomous vehicle without a human safety driver collided with a lane divider and street sign in Fremont, California. No injuries occurred, but the incident led the California DMV to suspend Pony.ai's driverless testing permit and prompted an NHTSA inquiry. The agency determined a software defect caused the crash and requested a recall, which Pony.ai issued for three vehicles in March 2022. The company updated its software and repaired the affected vehicles, while the driverless permit remains suspended pending DMV verification.
