The federal regulator noted that both the braking and the potential to become immobilized are separate matters, though they both can result in a robotaxi impeding other traffic. The initial probe will check out 242 GM Cruise robotaxis to determine if there are grounds for a recall. The NHTSA will assess the two concerns with regard not only to what's causing them to happen, but also how often they may occur. The organization must also determine how long the immobilized vehicles typically remain"stuck," and what consequences there may be if this continues to happen.

Thus far, the NHTSA has already noted that the reported problems "may introduce multiple potential hazards such as a collision with a Cruise vehicle, risk to a stranded passenger exiting an immobilized Cruise vehicle, or obstruction of other traffic including emergency vehicles." The NHTSA's investigation comes on the heels of three recent crashes. Rather than the robotaxi actually crashing, these incidents were caused by the Cruise cars stopping hard and being hit by another car in a rear-end collision.

The drives have taken place in busy urban areas, and there have not been any serious injuries or deaths.
