    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    The California Public Utilities Commission has suspended Cruise’s authority to carry and charge passengers for its robotaxi service, following similar action from the state’s Department of Motor Vehicles.

    The agency’s decision comes just three months after it awarded Cruise the final necessary permits to charge passengers for robotaxi rides in San Francisco.

    The DMV said another government agency alerted it to the missing footage, prompting it to request the full video from Cruise, which the company provided on October 13.

    “Our Consumer Protection and Enforcement Division is actively gathering, reviewing, and analyzing incident-related information from Cruise as part of our ongoing evaluation of its passenger service operations and assessment of any possible violations,” said Prosper.

    The CPUC’s August hearing to determine expansion for Cruise and its competitor Waymo included hours of protestations from opponents who feared for public safety and were concerned about traffic flow.

    A month after Cruise received its CPUC permit, the city of San Francisco formally requested state regulators redo their decision.
