This is not fair for cruise
https://fortune.com/2024/05/14/gm-cruise-settlement-pedestrian-accident-san-francisco/ In the meantime, the hit and run driver is probably fine without receiving any punishment because he's poor or he's never found
GM-owned Cruise reached a more than $8 million settlement with the pedestrian who was dragged by one of its robo taxis
Fortune
Need an under chassis camera will be cheaper than 8 million dollar
Not fair? They agreed to the settlement. Being drug by a car as a pedestrian is what is not fair.
Did the driver in blame get fined too
Maybe, but that’s independent of what Cruise agrees to for its own actions.
This is why big corporation have attorneys on retainer. This won't be the last of these types of lawsuits. Obviously, the dash camera on the Cruise vehicle didn't provide enough evidence for Cruise to push this to trail. In the future hopefully the tech gets better, and video evidence identify scammers.
