I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

For one of their new grape varieties, IFG wanted to use the name Candy Charms. But they had to abandon that plan after they discovered the name had already been claimed by a porn star with a large online presence and brand.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So now we’re kind of googling the porn industry as well when we get into the naming process,” Higgins said. “It’s obviously a big industry and not one that would be on our radar.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Porn stars aren’t the only source of name competition for this fruit company.

"content": "\u003cp>The U.S. government’s highway safety agency has approved a Bay Area company’s request to exempt its self-driving delivery vehicle from federal regulations governing human-driven cars and trucks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The approval for Mountain View-based Nuro marks the first time the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has granted \u003ca href=\"https://www.nhtsa.gov/sites/nhtsa.dot.gov/files/documents/nuro_grant_notice_final-unofficial.pdf\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">an exemption\u003c/a> for an autonomous vehicle without some of the standard safety and control equipment required for conventional passenger vehicles. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nuro’s autonomous electric vehicles, which have been likened to toasters on wheels, can carry about 420 pounds of groceries, pizza pies or what have you at a top speed of 25 mph. The “zero-passenger” robot cars, which have been used for grocery deliveries in Arizona and Texas, have no steering wheels, brake pedals, windshields or mirrors. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead, they rely on an array of sensors, including standard and thermal-vision cameras, radar and lidar, and computer navigation that allows the vehicle to travel through areas the company has already mapped. The firm has told NHTSA its automated driving system will be backed up by “experienced human operators who are extensively trained in the vehicle’s systems” who can assume control of the robot if necessary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The NHTSA exemption was granted for Nuro’s second-generation vehicle, the R2. The company \u003ca href=\"https://medium.com/nuro/introducing-r2-nuros-next-generation-self-driving-vehicle-a9974ff6c2e0\">calls it\u003c/a> “a socially responsible neighborhood vehicle that you can trust.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11800466\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/02/nuro.jpeg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/02/nuro-800x450.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11800466\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/02/nuro-800x450.jpeg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/02/nuro-160x90.jpeg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/02/nuro-1020x574.jpeg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/02/nuro.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Key specifications and features for Nuro’s R2. \u003ccite>(Nuro)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>In addition to all its advanced sensing hardware, navigational smarts and redundant braking and control systems, Nuro also touts what it calls the R2’s “pedestrian-protecting front end” — energy-absorbing “crumple zones” designed to reduce the severity of a collision impact. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In its NHTSA filings, Nuro has argued its front end would be significantly safer for a pedestrian collision victim than a conventional windshield, which have been found to be a leading factor in causing serious injuries. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nuro says the fully loaded robot vehicle weighs 2,530 pounds. It’s 108 inches long, 43 inches wide and 73 inches high. If you’re looking for an existing vehicle comparison, the Smart ForTwo model comes close — the R2 is roughly the same weight, height and length as the diminutive commute car, but about 30 inches narrower. Nuro advertises that reduced width as an added safety factor in the vehicle’s interactions with pedestrians and cyclists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://medium.com/nuro/why-nuro-and-walmart-have-teamed-up-bringing-autonomous-grocery-delivery-into-2020-8e1ae8b3b9f6\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Nuro announced \u003c/a> in December it planned to deploy the R2 in Houston to launch a grocery delivery service with Walmart.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/XKXbacNQGI8\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" scrolling=\"yes\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The company, teaming with Kroger, has operated similar services with its previous robot model, the R1, in both Houston and Scottsdale, Arizona.

The company will also be required to report any R2 crashes within 24 hours, hold regular meetings with the safety agency and do community outreach in the areas where its vehicles will operate. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nuro, which launched in 2016, is led by two veterans of Google’s self-driving car program, Dave Ferguson and Jiajun Zhu.

The “zero-passenger” robot cars, which have been used for grocery deliveries in Arizona and Texas, have no steering wheels, brake pedals, windshields or mirrors. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead, they rely on an array of sensors, including standard and thermal-vision cameras, radar and lidar, and computer navigation that allows the vehicle to travel through areas the company has already mapped. The firm has told NHTSA its automated driving system will be backed up by “experienced human operators who are extensively trained in the vehicle’s systems” who can assume control of the robot if necessary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The NHTSA exemption was granted for Nuro’s second-generation vehicle, the R2. The company \u003ca href=\"https://medium.com/nuro/introducing-r2-nuros-next-generation-self-driving-vehicle-a9974ff6c2e0\">calls it\u003c/a> “a socially responsible neighborhood vehicle that you can trust.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11800466\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/02/nuro.jpeg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/02/nuro-800x450.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11800466\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/02/nuro-800x450.jpeg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/02/nuro-160x90.jpeg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/02/nuro-1020x574.jpeg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2020/02/nuro.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Key specifications and features for Nuro’s R2. \u003ccite>(Nuro)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>In addition to all its advanced sensing hardware, navigational smarts and redundant braking and control systems, Nuro also touts what it calls the R2’s “pedestrian-protecting front end” — energy-absorbing “crumple zones” designed to reduce the severity of a collision impact. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In its NHTSA filings, Nuro has argued its front end would be significantly safer for a pedestrian collision victim than a conventional windshield, which have been found to be a leading factor in causing serious injuries. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nuro says the fully loaded robot vehicle weighs 2,530 pounds. It’s 108 inches long, 43 inches wide and 73 inches high. If you’re looking for an existing vehicle comparison, the Smart ForTwo model comes close — the R2 is roughly the same weight, height and length as the diminutive commute car, but about 30 inches narrower. Nuro advertises that reduced width as an added safety factor in the vehicle’s interactions with pedestrians and cyclists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://medium.com/nuro/why-nuro-and-walmart-have-teamed-up-bringing-autonomous-grocery-delivery-into-2020-8e1ae8b3b9f6\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Nuro announced \u003c/a> in December it planned to deploy the R2 in Houston to launch a grocery delivery service with Walmart.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/XKXbacNQGI8\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" scrolling=\"yes\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The company, teaming with Kroger, has operated similar services with its previous robot model, the R1, in both Houston and Scottsdale, Arizona. Last June, it partnered with Domino’s to test autonomous pizza deliveries in the Houston market. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

He reiterated that his priority is the “accuracy and integrity” of the results.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Doug Jones, a computer science professor at the University of Iowa and a former caucus precinct leader\"]‘It appears in this case that the app was never really tested in a manner which came close to approximating the real mess of an election.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>DNC Chairman Tom Perez said in a statement Tuesday evening that the issue “should never happen again.” He said the app would not be used during the primary election process and that the vendor “must provide absolute transparent accounting of what went wrong.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shadow Inc., the company that developed the app for the party, apologized for the delay in \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/ShadowIncHQ/status/1224773797380837377\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">a series of tweets\u003c/a> Tuesday afternoon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We sincerely regret the delay in the reporting of the results of last night’s Iowa caucuses and the uncertainty it has caused to the candidates, their campaigns, and Democratic caucus-goers,” the company said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As the Iowa Democratic Party has confirmed, the underlying data and collection process via Shadow’s mobile caucus app was sound and accurate, but our process to transmit that caucus results data generated via the app to the IDP was not,” Shadow added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The company said that it will “apply the lessons learned in the future” and that it has “already corrected the underlying technology issue. We take these issues very seriously, and are committed to improving and evolving to support the Democratic Party’s goal of modernizing its election processes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/ShadowIncHQ/status/1224773797380837377?s=20\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Iowa Democratic Party said it has determined “with certainty” that “the underlying data” via its \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2020/01/14/795906732/despite-election-security-fears-iowa-caucuses-will-use-new-smartphone-app\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">new app\u003c/a> “was sound.” In a statement Tuesday morning, Price said the app was recording data accurately, but “it was reporting out only partial data” because of a “coding issue in the reporting system.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Party staff then turned to entering data manually, which took longer than expected, Price said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Computer experts and caucus chairs said there was not enough training on using the app before Monday’s caucuses, which are chaotic enough as it is.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It appears in this case that the app was never really tested in a manner which came close to approximating the real mess of an election,” Doug Jones, a computer science professor at the University of Iowa and a former caucus precinct leader, told NPR on Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Caucus chairs, in many cases, apparently were attempting to download and install the app on their phones on caucus night,” he said. “That’s extraordinarily difficult to do that kind of thing under pressure.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A report by NPR and Iowa Public Radio last month \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2020/01/14/795906732/despite-election-security-fears-iowa-caucuses-will-use-new-smartphone-app\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">raised several concerns about the app\u003c/a>. Cybersecurity experts interviewed by NPR said the party’s decision to withhold the technical details of its app made it hard to have complete confidence in it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Troy Price, chair of the Iowa Democratic Party\"]‘We have every indication that our systems were secure and there was not a cybersecurity intrusion. ‘[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Drawing the blinds on the process leaves us, in the public, in a position where we can’t even assess the competence of the people doing something on our behalf,” Jones, the computer science professor, said then.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the time, Price said he was confident in the party’s contingency planning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If there’s a challenge, we’ll be ready with a backup and a backup to that backup and a backup to the backup to the backup,” Price told NPR. “We are fully prepared to make sure that we can get these results in and get those results in accurately.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And in his statement Tuesday morning, Price said: “We have every indication that our systems were secure and there was not a cybersecurity intrusion. In preparation for the caucuses, our systems were tested by independent cybersecurity consultants.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A spokesman for the Department of Homeland Security’s cybersecurity agency said, “At this time, we have no reporting of any malicious cyberactivity. We encourage our election partners to build resilience into their planning and execution procedures, to prepare for issues that may come up during election processes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., vice chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, said, “The continuing chaos in Iowa is illustrative of our overall failure to take sufficient steps to protect the integrity of our election systems.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But as NPR and Iowa Public Radio reported in January, there were also concerns about a lag in the adoption of technology in some rural parts of Iowa.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At least everybody with smartphones is gonna [use the app], I know that,” said Gary Gelner, who chairs the Hancock County Democratic Party in north central Iowa. “You’d be surprised how many people up here got the old flip cellphones.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Iowa Democratic Party paid Shadow, the app developer, a total of $63,183.91 in “professional fees” in November and December, according to \u003ca href=\"https://webapp.iecdb.iowa.gov/PublicView/statewide/2020/Period_Due_Date_19-Jan/Parties/Iowa%20Democratic%20Party_9098/Iowa%20Democratic%20Party_9098_B_Expenditures.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">a campaign finance report \u003c/a>filed by the party in January.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shadow’s website \u003ca href=\"https://shadowinc.io/about\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">describes the company\u003c/a> this way: “We are campaign and technology veterans who have built and implemented technology at Hillary for America, Obama for America, Google, Kiva, Apple, the AFL-CIO, and the DNC. Our passion is to create a permanent advantage for progressive campaigns and causes through technology.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Acronym, an anti-Trump superPAC, confirmed \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/taraemcg/status/1224591572458668032\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">in a tweet\u003c/a> that it had invested in Shadow. “We are reading confirmed reports of Shadow’s work with the Iowa Democratic Party on Twitter, and we, like everybody else, are eagerly awaiting more information” from the party on what happened, Acronym said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/taraemcg/status/1224591572458668032?s=20\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Multiple county chairs blamed the app for the delayed reporting of results.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Holly Christine Brown, the Asian/Pacific Islander caucus chair for the Iowa Democratic Party, said she was only appointed precinct chair last week and first saw the app on Friday evening.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We were just given access to the app and told, ‘Play around in there a little bit,’ and that was about as much training as we got,” Brown \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2020/02/04/802571180/iowa-democrat-responds-to-caucus-reporting-inconsistencies-people-are-very-upset\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">told NPR’s Rachel Martin\u003c/a>. “We were able to call in and ask questions, but there was no real training on the app.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brown said the problems with Monday’s caucuses will “absolutely” increase calls to change Iowa’s system. “People are very upset about how this happened and how this played out,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Elesha Gayman, the Scott County Democratic chair, said the app was difficult to use for older and younger people alike.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was unique; it’s not something you can download in the app store,” she said. “You actually had to fill out a form. In addition to that, you got a series of PIN numbers. And so, yeah, there was a lot of layers and I think that absolutely mucked it up. Anecdotally, a few of the people I do know who used the app successfully were younger people. But I do know some young people that also had troubles, just so many layers.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Marjie Foster, the Democratic chair of Decatur County, said her caucus “had absolutely no glitches with the app. Our app process worked great. Our chair was very well-prepared. He had trained and tested, and he was on target with it. So we had no issues with the app.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the app didn’t work for Des Moines County Democratic Party Co-Chairman Tom Courtney.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag=\"election2020\" label=\"related coverage\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Things didn’t work out right,” said Courtney, who said he tried to call in the results for several hours but couldn’t get through because the number was “constantly busy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead, Courtney said, he went home and planned to call and report his precinct’s results in the morning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“[The Iowa Democratic Party] made it seem like this was going to work fine. They tested it, tested it,” he said. “I’m old enough, I was skeptical, the whole thing, but I thought it would be better than it is. There have been problems. Little problems with it, right, all along. Guess I wasn’t surprised.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Early Tuesday afternoon, Iowa Secretary of State Paul Pate said in a statement that the accuracy of the vote totals “is much more important than the timeliness of releasing the results. I am glad to hear they have a paper trail for their votes, just as we use paper ballots in all official elections in the State of Iowa. I support [the Iowa Democratic Party] while they take their time and conduct checks and balances to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the votes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Democratic Party in Nevada, another caucus state, pledged Tuesday to avoid the problems Iowa saw.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“NV Dems can confidently say that what happened in the Iowa caucus last night will not happen in Nevada on February 22nd,” the party said\u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/MBForgey/status/1224748449867825152?s=20\"> in a statement\u003c/a>. “We will not be employing the same app or vendor used in the Iowa caucus.

The consortium offers AWS scale — each training has faculty from various colleges, and they can work together to market the classes to the community. It also includes high schools with early college programs and allows all partners to share what works and what doesn’t.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_11753881,news_11757618,news_11740476 label='Community Colleges']Foothill currently has an on-campus class and an online one, but the professor, \u003ca href=\"https://foothill.edu/cs/directory.html?s=1&rec_id=2037\">Anand Venkataraman\u003c/a>, welcomes everyone to the in-person meetings. A student also records every session and puts it online for students in either section to use. Still, of the 40 students who enrolled for the online class, almost half dropped out. That’s not unusual for online courses, Ong said, but she’s working with Venkataraman to tweak the pacing and materials in the online course so it works better. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They got a grant from the Online Education Initiative to hire an instructional designer to help them make tweaks. They already know the graphics need updating, the pacing in some of the videos needs work and they may need to change the order of some of the modules.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Because this is the first run, I think we’re really getting a lot of information about where things ought to be, and where things ought not to be,” Ong said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AWS sees community colleges as a good bet to build more diverse pipelines. In a statement, a company spokesperson wrote: \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We will continue to increase the number of community colleges we collaborate with to create pathways from K12 into higher education and into the workforce. Collaborations with community colleges also help us to ensure we are expanding access into diverse communities — communities of color, low‐income communities, and rural — where awareness of and preparation for jobs and lifelong careers that previously might not have been attainable.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AWS Educate also \u003ca href=\"https://aws.amazon.com/education/awseducate/\">has materials online\u003c/a> to teach about cloud computing, but that method doesn’t work for everyone. While the approximately 50 students at Foothill who’ve taken the introduction to cloud computing course won’t do much to stem the growing demand for cloud computing talent in the short term, Foothill says interest in next semester’s class is already up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

"content": "\u003cp>The U.S. government's auto safety agency is looking into allegations that all three models of Tesla's electric vehicles can accelerate suddenly on their own.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An unidentified person petitioned the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration asking for an investigation into the problem. An agency document shows 127 owner complaints to the government, which includes 110 crashes and 52 injuries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agency said it will look into allegations that cover about 500,000 Tesla vehicles. That includes Model 3, Model S and Model X vehicles from the 2013 through 2019 model years. The agency's investigations office will evaluate the petition and then decide if it should open a formal probe.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Messages were left Friday seeking comment from Tesla.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NHTSA is already investigating three December crashes involving Tesla vehicles in which three people were killed. The agency's special crash investigations unit sent teams to Gardena, California, and Terre Haute, Indiana, to probe two fatal crashes. Another crash in Connecticut also is under investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Frank Boris, a former head of safety defect investigations for NHTSA, said the number of complaints cited in the petition is unusual and warrants further investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The sheer number of complaints would certainly catch my eye,” said Boris, who now runs an auto safety consulting business.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tesla owners communicate with other owners in online forums and via social media, and that could influence the number of complaints, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID='news_11793816,news_11778417,news_11723347']He thought the timing of the petition is good, because the agency needs to do a “deeper dive” into Tesla safety, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some of the unintended acceleration complaints, which have yet to be verified by NHTSA, allege that the cars’ electronics malfunctioned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For instance, one owner in San Clemente told NHTSA that in November 2018, a Model X SUV accelerated on its own to full power during a U-turn on a city street. The driver had a foot on the brake, but the SUV accelerated in a fraction of a second, according to the complaint. The driver alleged that something in Tesla’s system “triggered the sudden spontaneously full acceleration, resulting in this collision.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The SUV hit a parked vehicle, the air bags inflated and the owner had a large abdominal bruise and several small chest bruises, according to the complaint. People who file complaints with NHTSA are not identified in the agency’s database.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That driver asked NHTSA to find out whether the Tesla complaints had common elements, including parking or making turns at low speeds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In another crash, in May 2013, the owner of a Model S sedan in Thousand Oaks complained that while pulling into a parking spot the car suddenly accelerated on its own.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Model S went over a parking block and a curb and struck a cement light post. The air bags inflated, but no one was hurt, the complaint said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Three weeks after the crash, the owner got a letter from Tesla saying that the accelerator was depressed to 48% just before the crash and 98% at the time of impact. The owner still believes the car accelerated by itself, the complaint stated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anyone can petition NHTSA to investigate an auto safety problem, and the agency said in a statement Friday that it encourages people to report concerns.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the other Tesla crashes that NHTSA is investigating, authorities are trying to determine whether the cars were operating on Tesla's Autopilot driver assist system, which is designed to keep a car in its lane and a safe distance from other vehicles. Autopilot also can change lanes on its own.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Separately, the National Transportation Safety Board will hold a hearing Feb. 25 on a fatal crash in Mountain View involving a Tesla that was operating on the company's Autopilot system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tesla has said repeatedly that its Autopilot is designed only to assist drivers, who must still pay attention and be ready to intervene at all times. The company contends that Teslas with Autopilot are safer than vehicles without it, but cautions that the system does not prevent all crashes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NHTSA’s crash program has inspected 23 crashes involving vehicles that the agency believed were operating on some form of partially automated advanced driver assist system. Fourteen of these cases involved Tesla models.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

An agency document shows 127 owner complaints to the government, which includes 110 crashes and 52 injuries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agency said it will look into allegations that cover about 500,000 Tesla vehicles. That includes Model 3, Model S and Model X vehicles from the 2013 through 2019 model years. The agency's investigations office will evaluate the petition and then decide if it should open a formal probe.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Messages were left Friday seeking comment from Tesla.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NHTSA is already investigating three December crashes involving Tesla vehicles in which three people were killed. The agency's special crash investigations unit sent teams to Gardena, California, and Terre Haute, Indiana, to probe two fatal crashes. Another crash in Connecticut also is under investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Frank Boris, a former head of safety defect investigations for NHTSA, said the number of complaints cited in the petition is unusual and warrants further investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The sheer number of complaints would certainly catch my eye,” said Boris, who now runs an auto safety consulting business.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tesla owners communicate with other owners in online forums and via social media, and that could influence the number of complaints, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The driver had a foot on the brake, but the SUV accelerated in a fraction of a second, according to the complaint. The driver alleged that something in Tesla’s system “triggered the sudden spontaneously full acceleration, resulting in this collision.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The SUV hit a parked vehicle, the air bags inflated and the owner had a large abdominal bruise and several small chest bruises, according to the complaint. People who file complaints with NHTSA are not identified in the agency’s database.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That driver asked NHTSA to find out whether the Tesla complaints had common elements, including parking or making turns at low speeds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In another crash, in May 2013, the owner of a Model S sedan in Thousand Oaks complained that while pulling into a parking spot the car suddenly accelerated on its own.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Model S went over a parking block and a curb and struck a cement light post. The air bags inflated, but no one was hurt, the complaint said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Three weeks after the crash, the owner got a letter from Tesla saying that the accelerator was depressed to 48% just before the crash and 98% at the time of impact. The owner still believes the car accelerated by itself, the complaint stated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anyone can petition NHTSA to investigate an auto safety problem, and the agency said in a statement Friday that it encourages people to report concerns.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the other Tesla crashes that NHTSA is investigating, authorities are trying to determine whether the cars were operating on Tesla's Autopilot driver assist system, which is designed to keep a car in its lane and a safe distance from other vehicles. Autopilot also can change lanes on its own.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Separately, the National Transportation Safety Board will hold a hearing Feb. 25 on a fatal crash in Mountain View involving a Tesla that was operating on the company's Autopilot system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tesla has said repeatedly that its Autopilot is designed only to assist drivers, who must still pay attention and be ready to intervene at all times. The company contends that Teslas with Autopilot are safer than vehicles without it, but cautions that the system does not prevent all crashes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NHTSA’s crash program has inspected 23 crashes involving vehicles that the agency believed were operating on some form of partially automated advanced driver assist system. Fourteen of these cases involved Tesla models.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
