Although the two types of incidents are unrelated, they "may introduce multiple potential hazards" to passengers, traffic and Cruise vehicles, according to the NHTSA."We’ll continue to fully cooperate with NHTSA or any regulator," Drew Pusateri, a Cruise spokesperson, told Axios in an email. The company has driven at least 700,000 autonomous vehicles "with zero life-threatening injuries or fatalities," he said.
