A self-driving car has sparked confusion and frustration after becoming stuck in heavy traffic, despite being surrounded by emergency personnel who attempted to guide it forward. The vehicle’s automated systems appear to have overridden external commands, leaving it motionless amid a busy multi-lane roadway. Authorities and passengers remain unclear on whether the stall was due to a technical malfunction or an unexpected response to its environment. The incident raises fresh questions about the reliability and safety of autonomous driving technology in real-world conditions.
