"GM's Cruise Under Investigation for Robotaxi Pedestrian Incident and Leadership Issues"
Originally Published 1 year ago — by The Verge
Cruise, the self-driving car subsidiary of General Motors, faced internet connectivity issues while trying to send a video of an incident in which one of its driverless cars dragged a pedestrian to regulators. A law firm's report concluded that Cruise failed to disclose all details to regulators and government officials, contributing to a culture of antagonism toward regulators. The incident led to the suspension of Cruise's license to operate in California, the resignation of several executives, and a pause in its driverless operations nationwide.
