Onboard system error appears to have routed double-decker bus driver to low bridge in downtown Spokane
AI Incident DB Blogยทabout 1 month ago

AI navigation system in Spokane Transit Authority double-decker buses failed to account for vehicle height restrictions, routing drivers onto Cedar Street where one bus crashed into an overhead viaduct. This represents a clear case of AI safety failure in transportation systems where the algorithm's lack of vehicle-specific routing capabilities led to physical damage and potential injury.
