Google accepted at least some responsibility for the collision, which occurred on February 14 when one of the Lexus SUVs it has outfitted with sensors and cameras hit the side of the bus near the company's headquarters in Mountain View, California.
No one was injured, according to an accident report Google wrote and submitted to the California Department of Motor Vehicles. It was posted online Monday.
According to the report, Google's car intended to turn right off a major boulevard when it detected sandbags around a storm drain at the intersection.
谷歌一辆采用无人驾驶技术的雷克萨斯SUV在行驶到交叉路口时，为了避免撞到路边的沙袋而变更车道，结果撞上了行驶在该车道的公交车。
The right lane was wide enough to let some cars turn and others go straight, but the Lexus needed to slide to its left within the right lane to get around the obstruction.
The Lexus was going 2 mph (3 kph) when it made the move and its left front struck the right side of the bus, which was going straight at 15 mph (24 kph).
好在当时谷歌无人驾驶汽车的车速只有2英里每小时，公交汽车的车速也不过15英里每小时
