Uber is suspending its entire self-driving car program while it investigates a serious crash of one of its vehicles in Arizona. A spokeswoman told Tech Crunch that Uber’s autonomous car program — currently being tested in Arizona, Pittsburgh and just recently again in San Francisco — has been suspended pending an investigation. No one was injured in the Tempe crash, and the accident was not the fault of the Uber car, Tempe police told Bloomberg News. Another car failed to yield the right of way, and the Uber car flipped onto its side. “There was a person behind the wheel” of the Uber car, police spokesman Jose Montenegro told Bloomberg.
