Description
Why not have a five foot comfort alligator? GM funds Kyle's $2 billion a year comfort corporation. Speaking of Kyle this week one of his Cruise vehicle ran over a lady and parked on her leg but he still thinks any criticisms of his company are sensationalistic and if we keep doing it he's going to take his ball and go home. The Teamsters are asking NHTSA to send him to his room without dessert and not allow his Cruise robots to be exempted from federal safety guidelines, Hyundai/Kia's are still being stolen, some good news on traffic fatalities and some bad news on pedestrian fatalities, plus Fred tries to clear up confusion around GPS.This weeks links:https://www.autosafety.org/support-us/https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2023/10/03/cruise-self-driving-car-san-francisco/https://www.theverge.com/2023/10/3/23901233/cruise-crash-hit-run-pedestrian-injury-sf-robotaxihttps://downloads.regulations.gov/NHTSA-2022-0067-0088/attachment_1.pdfhttps://www.nhtsa.gov/press-releases/2023-Q2-traffic-fatality-estimateshttps://arstechnica.com/cars/2023/09/mercedes-benzs-level-3-autonomous-driving-system-takes-over-in-heavy-traffic/https://6abc.com/schuylkill-expressway-philadelphia-state-police-multi-car-crash/13853115/https://www.koat.com/article/stolen-car-driver-in-custody-after-fatal-crash/45401168https://abcnews.go.com/US/5-killed-illinois-tanker-truck-crash-apparently-died/story?id=103655257https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls?nhtsaId=23V654000
