Ready for Certification

Among the clients of the NeMo company, several were also doing tests of their trucks under temporary permits from their local authorities.

They were using the analyzing software from NeMo after each trip. And if they found some anomaly or possible improvement, they sent their recording to the NeMo company. This was another factor that improved the quality of the NeMo software.

Starting in October 2027, Nestor and Moana started to prepare their software system for certification by NAAVCA, the North-American Autonomous Vehicle Certification Authority.

NAAVCA is an organization created by the federal governments of Canada, the United States, and Mexico. It is recognized by all provinces and states in North America.

The creation of NAAVCA had been created in 2025 at the instigation of AOC, the Vice-President of the United States. She had been elected in November 2024, less than one month after her 35th birthday, the minimum age for presidents and vice-presidents.

Nestor and Moana, with their consultants, prepared the necessary documentation so that their software could be certified by NAAVCA.

In March 2028, they were ready.

I will say i think your technical background comes through in the writing. There are really specific references to things like places, character characteristics and items. This is true in the first couple of chapters. I'm only through chapter 3 right now. I thought it was interesting as an engineer I also highlight details because that's what I'm use to doing at work. Some of the early examples that stuck out are the vegan diet, listing the Costco company trailer, and naming all the highways. As I enjoy short stories, I'll have to keep reading to fill in the gaps.

Thank you. I tried to keep the story as probable as possible, using real space names.

It does help. I’ll take the time and read the remaining chapters and give you my thoughts. I’ll also give any suggestions on grammar. However, I’m not always the best considering I typically deal with numbers all day.

Good, I am waiting for your comments.

So what's the story about??
Just got back on Hive and I'm trying to get more active. Stumbled on your story and would like to know waht it's about.

To know what a story is about, you read the title, then the story.

When you have done that, you may ask questions,

Oops. Okay
