A report from San Francisco transit officials this week revealed the city streets that have endured frequent incidents by the driverless vehicle company Cruise.sent to the commission that regulates autonomous vehicles, or AVs, in the state, there were 92 unique incidents reported to the city in a seven-month period between May 29 and Dec. 31, 2022.

City officials specified that four intersections in particular — Franklin and California, Divisadero and Oak, Mission and 29th Street, and Cesar Chavez and Mission — were the sites of multiple incidents. They added that 88% of these recorded incidents occurred on streets with major public transportation such as Muni buses and light rail.

The report was included in a letter from a trio of city agencies sent to the California Public Utilities Commission regarding Cruise’s request to expand its driverless service. The company is seeking approval to operate across the entirety of San Francisco and for 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Cruise is currently allowed to operate its driverless vehicles for the public between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m.

The city officials — who included directors from the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency, mayor's office and SF County Transportation Authority — recommended the commission show “further restraint” until Cruise can successfully demonstrate its AVs can function without compromising safety.
