One wonders WTF they were thinking. Were they so sloppy they just forgot to show the video? Were they hoping DMV would never see it? Either way it's a terrible stupid and short sighted mistake. A major problem for Cruise is convincing governments their technology is safe and responsible. Hiding evidence is not going to help that case.
- _xivi 3y ago> Either way it's a terrible stupid and short sighted mistake Uh, 'Mistake' is a really generous word here. Cruise isn't some amateur one-man startup. It's a multi-billion dollars company with tons of lawyers, advisors, resources, support from GM, etc. It was a deliberate act full-stop. The only 'mistake' they made was probably thinking they could get away with it.
