Regulator of Cruise and Waymo admitted it didn’t have sufficient safety data before critical vote to expand service.
The California Public Utilities Commission, the regulator that for years let PG&E play fast and loose with our safety, is at it again.
The CPUC’s mission is serving the public interest by protecting consumers. But on Aug. 10, the commission ignored significant safety concerns and voted 3-1 in favor of allowing GM subsidiary Cruise and Alphabet’s Waymo to expand their robotaxis to any hour of the day throughout San Francisco. Now San Francisco City Attorney David Chiu is asking the CPUC to suspend Cruise’s and Waymo’s permits.
Reynolds’ decision offers a grim reminder of the lapses of ethical judgment routinely displayed by former CPUC President Michael Peevey from 2009-15.
