Cruise CEO Says SF ‘Should Be Rolling Out the Red Carpet’ for Robotaxis, Threatens to Maybe Leave Town
In his first major public interview since the DMV cut their San Francisco fleet in half, Cruise CEO Kyle Vogt said “we cannot expect perfection” from the self-driving cars, and vaguely threatened to leave town if regulators curtail them any further.
Who's going to be sad that they're leaving town?
8Oh no, don't leave town. whatever would we do without you beta testing your unworkable hardware on public streets and making the traffic even worse than it was.

I’m willing to accept that robotaxis could someday - SOMEDAY - statistically be safer drivers than humans. Blocking emergency vehicles and creating traffic jams is completely unacceptable, however. Until those problems are solved, I don’t care what advantages robotaxis may bring.
