Cruise cars cause traffic jam in San Francisco's North Beach neighborhood

New York resident Valerie Jacobson, who was visiting San Francisco, says it was a confusing mess.

“One of them was like pretty much stuck up against one of the sidewalk sheds and trying to maneuver out of it but couldn’t," she said."There was also a huge line up ahead of it. One of them was stopped at the top of the hill for no apparent reason. This had created a huge backlog." The incident comes on the heels of a ruling this week, giving driverless cars the green light to expand services in San Francisco. The California Public Utilities Commission ruling means Cruise and Waymo robotaxis can operate 24-hours a day in San Francisco and part of San Mateo County.
