Federal Regulators Investigate GM's Cruise Over Pedestrian Safety Concerns With Self-Driving Vehicles

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is investigating Cruise's self-driving vehicles after reports of incidents involving pedestrians being struck.
The probe was launched after two pedestrian injury reports and two additional incidents identified in videos posted online.
The incidents occurred in San Francisco and involved Cruise vehicles encroaching on pedestrians in crosswalks and roadways.
Cruise claims their safety record is better than human drivers but will cooperate fully with the federal investigation.
Regulators aim to determine the scope and severity of the issues and whether proper caution is being taken around pedestrians.
