      Does cutting their fleet mean they stopped operating or they reduced the size of their fleet?

      One of the crashes was a car running a red light and hitting the Cruise vehicle.

        It means these vehicles are still crashing even when geofenced to operate in ‘perfect’ conditions with premapped destinations. This is not a fully functional system as they can’t operate outside these city grids at low speeds in favorable weather conditions with a premapped route. Compare miles driven between Cruise and Teslas systems. One has several orders of magnitude more miles than the other.
