SF MTA is urging the CPUC to reject Cruise’s proposal and do its own investigation
San Francisco is objecting to Cruise’s proposal to end the California Public Utilities Commission proceeding looking into how the company responded to an accident last fall involving one of the company’s self-driving cars.
“San Francisco does not support approval of the proposed settlement as submitted,” he said. “Adopting the Proposed Settlement at this time,” he continued, “would not be reasonable or in the public interest.
To settle the proceeding — and avoid potentially harsher sanctions by the commission — Cruise has proposed paying a $75,000 fine into the state’s general fund. It’s also offered to provide the CPUC with the same kinds of collision reports it files with the state Department of Motor Vehicles and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Indeed, city officials became aware that the company’s car had struck the woman only from a video provided by Cruise, according to the Quinn Emanuel report.
“The Commission should have an opportunity to develop and present its view on the incident and how it may inform understanding of driverless Cruise AV safety and/or Commission policies and procedures,” Chiu said. “The Commission has a clear interest in understanding this incident in order to prevent similar incidents in the future,” he continued.
