    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    The department also accused the company of withholding portions of the video of the incident that showed its vehicle dragging the pedestrian to the curb in an attempt to pull over.

    Over 100 Cruise employees were aware of the pedestrian-dragging incident prior to the October 3rd meeting with the San Francisco mayor’s office, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the DMV, and other government officials.

    In the immediate hours after the incident, some Cruise employees were unaware that the vehicle dragged the pedestrian while attempting to pull over and issued a press statement and began sharing an early video with journalists.

    In its interviews with employees, Cruise “observed too much of an ‘us versus them’ attitude… which is not indicative of a healthy, mutually productive relationship,” says the Quinn Emanuel report.

    The firm says it is a “fundamentally flawed approach” to assume a video can “speak for itself” and remove the need to disclose all details to regulators and government officials.

    “We are focused on advancing our technology and earning back public trust,” Cruise said in a blog post in response to the report.
