This is the best summary I could come up with:
Cruise, the self-driving car subsidiary of GM, has been asked to reduce its robotaxi fleet by 50% in San Francisco following a crash Thursday night with a fire truck.
The DMV added that it has the right, following the investigation to suspend or revoke testing and/or deployment permits if there is determined to be an unreasonable risk to public safety.
Cruise has had a series of snafus, including at least 10 of its driverless cars reportedly stalling and blocking traffic, which threatens to derail its commercial plans.
The string of glitches come just a week after winning approval from the California Public Utilities Commission to expand commercial operations in San Francisco.
The CPUC, the agency that regulates ride-hailing operations including those involving robotaxis, approved Cruise and Waymo on August 10 for final permits that allow the companies to operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week, expand their fleets and charge for rides throughout the city.
Chiu’s arguments parallel comments made by residents and other city officials during a public hearing ahead of the CPUC’s vote.
