Recently, an incident involving a self-driving car took place near Mueller Lake Park in Austin, Texas, United States, where the vehicle struck and killed an 'internet-famous duck,' igniting widespread discontent among local residents. Eyewitnesses reported that an Avride self-driving car, undergoing testing, failed to slow down or change course as it approached the park and directly hit a duck that was well-loved by the community. The occupants inside the vehicle did not stop to assess the situation. This incident has once again drawn attention to the limitations of self-driving cars in detecting small animals such as cats, dogs, chickens, and ducks, with similar accidental collisions having been reported with self-driving vehicles from various brands. As public concern mounts, Avride responded by emphasizing its commitment to safety, launching a thorough internal investigation, and temporarily halting testing operations on certain road sections around Mueller Lake. Simultaneously, the company is exploring specialized technological enhancements to prevent such incidents from recurring.
