In a social media post, Cruise blamed Outside Lands for disrupting its wireless bandwidth connectivity. Some say that's no excuse as the robotaxis are now authorized to give rides 24/7.

Video from earlier in the day on Friday also shows a driverless car interfering in a fire response.

"Sometimes, it's like oh what is this person doing?" Warren Liang, a San Francisco resident said. "I look over and oh, there's no person! Wow, ok cool cool cool. It works but sometimes it's a little creepy because it's like wow, there's no one in there." The stories continue for Dimere Smith, a contractor for Lyft who helps organize the ride-share areas outside of festivals like Outside Lands."We have the cages that are blocking off the streets so people can cross and there was a car in front of one of the cages for like an hour, it was just sitting there, wasn't moving and then when the tag team showed up, they're like oh we came out here for this specific car," Smith said.

"I feel like the Cruises go slower, they're less aggressive drivers," Clarissa Kamajaya, a San Francisco resident who regularly uses Cruise said.
