The City says these incidents can last anywhere from a few minutes to multiple hours, and that about a third of them include multiple Cruise vehicles idling at the same location.
After years of lobbying the state to increase regulations on autonomous vehicles, San Francisco officials are taking their case to the feds.
The City’s letter to NHTSA provides specific data on these incidents. Between May 29 and Sept. 5 of this year, 28 incidents of stopped Cruise cars blocking traffic were reported to 911. The City identified an additional 20 such incidents reported on social media over that time period, which does not include the events of the past week.
In their letter on behalf of the entire city government, Tumlin and Chang stress that they “neither support nor oppose the Petition, but document safety hazards and street capacity issues raised by the operation of the Cruise AV on San Francisco streets.” They go on to call for several specific regulations they would like to see imposed on Cruise and Ford’s Argo AI, another company seeking to build and deploy a fully autonomous vehicle.
Cruise’s petition calls for the deployment of 5,000 Origin vehicles, a figure that worries San Francisco officials. If just half of those vehicles were deployed in San Francisco for ride-hailing service, it would represent a 25-fold increase in the number of Cruise vehicles on the streets, The City estimates, potentially creating a major new source of traffic.
