A driverless shuttle in Las Vegas crashed Wednesday after it was launched only hours earlier.
The shuttle crashed just before noon not far from the Las Vegas Strip, less than two hours after officials held an unveiling ceremony to promote the vehicle.
Dozens of people had lined up to board the shuttle, but no one was injured in the accident, which saw the bus collide with a semi-truck, KSNV reported.

We all know that human driven shuttles have never crashed! Few of us know that the human driven truck was at fault, and crashed into the shuttle.
To: jazusamo
Nobody will read past the title.
The driver of the truck was cited for the accident.

I’m not saying that the self-driving shuttle is a good idea, but in fairness, the shuttle did not cause the collision, a delivery truck backed into the shuttle when the shuttle was at a complete stop.
