While commuter buses ferrying Apple and Google employees have been rerouted to avoid being shot at – reportedly with a pellet gun – GM Cruise has had less success keeping one of its self-driving cars out of harm's way.

Earlier this week, the autonomous vehicle subsidiary of automaker GM said that one of its Cruise autonomous vehicles (AV), operating in autonomous mode though presumably carrying a human minder, was struck by a charging pedestrian on January 2, 2018 in San Francisco, California, USA.
