Description

To celebrate Fred and Anthony's birthday the California DMV has banned GM Cruise self driving cars. The moral of the story? Don't listen to tech bro nonsense AND don't lie to the DMV. Turns out the GM Cruise that ran over a woman dragged her too but GM Cruise forgot to mention that part.The DOJ is getting all up in Tesla's business. Turns out lying to consumers about their EV range is not a good thing. A "super fog" causes a 168 car pile up, Colorado adds a vehicle weight fee, Fred invents a new number 5 and recall roundup.This weeks links:https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2023/10/24/cruise-robotaxis-california-suspended/https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/2023/10/24/superfog-louisiana-highway-crashes-marsh/e8dc0152-726b-11ee-936d-7a16ee667359_story.htmlhttps://www.theverge.com/2023/10/23/23928563/tesla-doj-ev-range-exaggerate-investigationhttps://arstechnica.com/cars/2023/10/elon-musk-talks-tesla-we-dug-our-own-grave-with-the-cybertruck/https://usa.streetsblog.org/2023/10/18/colorados-vehicle-weight-fee-could-tame-megacar-crisis-and-protect-vulnerable-road-usershttps://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls?nhtsaId=23V696000https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls?nhtsaId=23V692000https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls?nhtsaId=23V686000https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2023/RCLRPT-23V700-2183.PDF
