Title seems misleading and Cruise doesn't seem to be responsible for the death, but I have to think that Cruise needs a better system for responding to emergencies like this. Do they have remote operators who can assume control of vehicles when the vehicles are confused or become immobile? What is their maximum response time? Is there a mechanism for people near the vehicle to signal Cruise for assistance, like an external button or even a QR code/phone number to report issues?

> Title seems misleading and Cruise doesn't seem to be responsible for the death I hate click-bate titles just as much as the next guy, but in this case it is warranted. The article said the injured was in critical condition. In general getting this person to proper care in Hospital _faster_ could have had a better outcome. Regardless, I don't think Cruise is roadworthy until they are able to clear the way for EMS. Maybe the cars don't need to be manually overridden in such case, at least initially, but even if they can maneuver to the side of the road that would be enough.
