A California state agency said on Thursday it is mandating enhanced data reporting requirements for autonomous vehicles including reports for incidents where self-driving cars get stuck.
The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) is requiring companies to file detailed trip-level incident reports that cover both collision and non-collision incidents, including citations and stoppage events.
In June, GM self-driving unit Cruise agreed to pay the maximum $112,500 penalty to the CPUC for failing to promptly provide complete information to the commission about a serious crash involving one of its robotaxis last year.
CPUC said all autonomous vehicle operators will be required to simultaneously file reports with the commission and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration within one day of any collision, containing “more comprehensive information, enabling better oversight and prompt responses to collisions.”
