"Multiple Agencies Investigate GM's Cruise Over Driverless Car Collision and Culture Issues"
TL;DR Summary
GM's driverless car company Cruise is under investigation by multiple federal agencies and California regulators following an October crash involving a pedestrian. The company's response to the incident raised concerns, leading to the pause of its driverless ride-hailing services in all markets, the resignation of its CEO, and the hiring of an outside law firm to investigate. A scathing report from the law firm cited poor leadership, mistakes in judgment, lack of coordination, and a fundamental misapprehension of the company's obligations to the public as reasons for Cruise's failings.
