SAN FRANCISCO—A California regulator on Monday said it has suspended a driverless testing permit for startup technology firm Pony.ai following an accident—the first time it has issued such a suspension.
On Oct. 28, a Pony.ai vehicle operating in autonomous mode hit a road center divider and a traffic sign in Fremont after turning right, showed the technology firm’s accident report filed with the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV).
