SV is the subject vehicle — the one whose operator filed the report. CP is the crash partner, the other party. Contact area is where each was struck. NHTSA requires a report for any crash involving the driving system regardless of fault.

On the morning of March [XXX], 2026, at approximately 11:46 a.m., a WeRide autonomous vehicle (Vehicle 1) was traveling along [XXX] in San Jose, California, proceeding straight in the second lane from the left as it approached the intersection with [XXX]. Operating in autonomous mode, the vehicle came to a complete stop at a red traffic signal. While stopped, Vehicle 1 was struck from behind by a white 2012 Chevrolet Colorado pickup truck (Vehicle 2), whose driver failed to stop in time. Immediately following the collision, the In-vehicle safety operator of Vehicle 1 disengaged autonomous mode and assessed the situation. Both drivers then relocated their vehicles to a safe area nearby, where they exchanged information and performed a visual inspection of the damage. The damage to both vehicles was minor in nature. Vehicle 1 sustained a small scratch to its rear bumper, while Vehicle 2 sustained a corresponding minor scratch to its front bumper. No injuries were reported by either party, and emergency services were not requested.
