Cruise self-driving car ticketed for not yielding to pedestrian in San Francisco
A Cruise self-driving car was issued a traffic citation by San Francisco police after it allegedly failed to yield to a pedestrian in a crosswalk. The company disputes the violation, claiming its data shows the pedestrian was 10.8 feet away and the car acted correctly. No one was injured. The incident occurred a week after a fatal Uber self-driving car crash in Arizona.
