San Francisco Demands Autonomy Transparency | Oakland News

from Oakland News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

San Francisco’s mayor Daniel Lurie is demanding tighter oversight of self-driving cars, especially from Waymo, after incidents during major events like the Fourth of July fireworks left streets gridlocked and public transit stuck. Citing a critical lack of real-time data and transparency, Lurie argues cities can’t manage traffic safely without knowing where AVs are or how quickly they can be moved. He’s calling for mandatory rules requiring companies to share operational data, respond to emergencies, and prove readiness through controlled testing—not live public events. While pushing for accountability, Lurie remains open to collaboration with industry and regulators to ensure autonomous tech evolves responsibly.
