"What do you mean?" The driver of the small car heard something unusual.
"No matter how good the autonomous vehicle is, it's not a human!" The person in the front passenger seat said, "If it encounters a troublesome situation, such as endangering the safety of pedestrians or something else, and it causes a traffic accident, its manufacturer will have to compensate!"
"If we manipulate it a little …" He did not continue, but the driver's heart suddenly beat faster.
Yes, as an experienced driver, he knew many ways to cause and deal with traffic accidents. Some gangs even specifically used this method to "scam" cars. As long as the method was good enough, there would not be any trace of scamming in the traffic laws.
If they used this method to scam the autonomous vehicle, they might be able to get a high compensation. Moreover, the autonomous vehicle was not a real person, so it would be easy to mislead them …
"This way, there won't be any problems, right?" The driver asked worriedly.
"Don't worry! I've done this before! " The person in the front passenger seat said confidently, "As long as we're prepared, the traffic police won't find any problems."
"Then … we'll do it?"
"Do it! There's only one chance to make a fortune! It's a waste not to do it! "
A few days later, after careful preparation, the two began to plan their "scamming" business.
The driver, Wei Jian, was still driving his own car. There were no passengers in the car, but it was full of porcelain and handicrafts. These things were expensive, but due to various reasons, they were all broken and were now just a pile of trash. Wei Jian and his partner, Zhuang Yan, had already done all the necessary procedures to prove the value of these porcelain.
He put the broken porcelain in the car and drove on the road.
On the other side, Zhuang Yan was riding an electric scooter, wearing a mask and ready.
"Are we almost there?" Wei Jian contacted Zhuang Yan through the phone and asked about the location of Peng Yun's autonomous vehicle.
Zhuang Yan looked at his watch and said, "Almost there, in three to five minutes. Drive slowly, you have to stop in front of that car!"
"I promise! With my skills, do you still need to worry? " Wei Jian was full of confidence. They had already discussed to create a rear-end incident of the autonomous vehicle hitting their car, then compensate for the damage of the car and the original price of the "broken" handicrafts in the car.
Originally, Zhuang Yan had wanted to play with human flesh or car parts, but Wei Jian felt that the risk was too high, so he chose this. As long as they did the right thing, they could make a huge profit!
In Pengyun Car's unmanned vehicle monitoring and inspection room, a few staff members had just confirmed the safety of the unmanned vehicle system and were currently chatting.
"These driverless cars have traveled close to ten thousand kilometers in total, and they're still running steadily. It is estimated that after this month, the traffic control department will consider issuing us an official license for autonomous vehicles, "a technician said.
"That's hard to say, but as long as we succeed this month, it's only a matter of time before we get an official license!" The colleague said, "Our company will be the first company in the world to sell a fully autonomous car."
"Do you guys think that in the future, Pengyun Automobile will become some world famous automobile?! At that time, our company's internal staff can get luxury cars at a cheaper price! "
"It's possible! We are backed by the Hongxin Group! "
"Eh?" A security inspector let out a cry of bewilderment, his eyes staring at the real-time surveillance image sent back by a certain Peng Yun unmanned vehicle.
"What's wrong?" his colleague asked.
"Look! This car has been stuck in front of the unmanned vehicle, and it's even in the middle of the road, not letting it pass, "he said.
"Sigh, I thought it was something else!" The colleague beside him said casually, "Some new drivers are like this, afraid of accidents, they keep driving in the middle of the road, and they drive very slowly."
On the road, that Pengyun unmanned vehicle had been stuck behind the small car driver in a slower than average speed mode.
Wei Jian was a bit nervous, and his hand that was holding the steering wheel was sweating. He kept looking at the rearview mirror, and at the same time, communicated with Zhuang Yan.
"Soon, we're almost there. Get ready, seize the opportunity!"
"Okay!" Zhuang Yan's scooter had been running the whole time, waiting for the opportunity.
"I'm going to start, quick, come out!" When they reached the arranged location, Wei Jian started to drive the scooter to the right, as if he wanted to give way to the unmanned vehicle and let it overtake them.
The unmanned vehicle's smart driving system determined that the speed of the car in front was too low, and the road ahead was clear, so it could overtake. It started to overtake mode, accelerated to the left, and prepared to overtake.
Just as the unmanned vehicle had successfully overtaken and was in front of the small car, an electric scooter suddenly appeared on the right side of the road ahead, accelerating as if it was going to cross the road illegally.
"It's here!" Wei Jian's heart skipped a beat, this was the time. When the unmanned vehicle in front determined that the electric scooter was going to cross the road and began to slow down, he would slightly accelerate and hit the rear of the unmanned vehicle.
Zhuang Yan, who was driving the electric scooter, would not cross the road, but turn away.
This way, it would create the illusion of a traffic accident because the unmanned vehicle was crossing the road, and then Wei Jian could take out the broken handicrafts in the scooter to ask for compensation. The plan was perfect!
The unmanned vehicle's smart driving system determined that the electric scooter driver in front was going to cross the road illegally, and began to slow down. This deceleration plan was perfectly calculated by the quantum computer, so it could ensure that it would not hit the electric scooter, and also not cause a rear collision.
Wei Jian narrowed his eyes, stepped on the accelerator, and wanted to charge forward. At this time, Zhuang Yan also began to turn the electric scooter.
Everything looked perfect, if it was a normal driver driving the Pengyun vehicle. They would definitely not react in time, resulting in a rear collision. But the Pengyun vehicle was an automatic parallel vehicle, and if it suddenly slowed down, it would be determined as the responsible party. At that time, Wei Jian's scamming plan would succeed.
But everything was not as perfect as Wei Jian imagined. In the hundredth of a second when Zhuang Yan turned the electric scooter, the smart driving system made a judgment, began to accelerate, and slightly adjusted the direction to avoid a rear collision.
Wei Jian stepped on the accelerator a bit harder, and the speed of the electric scooter suddenly increased. On the right side of the road, the direction Zhuang Yan came from, there was a car that was about to enter the main road, but Zhuang Yan suddenly turned and blocked it.
"Thank you!" The female driver in the car shouted. In order to avoid hitting Zhuang Yan, she hurriedly turned the steering wheel, stepped on the accelerator that she thought was the brake, and rushed onto the road. It looked like she wanted to have close contact with the Pengyun unmanned vehicle.
