Compliance with Standing General Order 2021-01 Reporting Requirements

What NHTSA is examining

The Office of Defects Investigation ("ODI") has identified several incident reports submitted by Avride Inc. ("Avride") in response to Standing General Order 2021-01 ("SGO") with potentially incomplete or inaccurate information. Certain of these reports indicate that, at the time of submission, Avride was not aware of any injuries resulting from the crashes, and some state that police reports of the crashes were available. ODI obtained copies of these police reports, as well as copies of police reports for other crashes Avride reported under the SGO for which Avride did not list police reports as an available source of data. The police reports indicate potential injuries were sustained by occupants of Avride vehicles and/or occupants of other vehicles involved in the crash. ODI also identified SGO reports stating that an injury was reported or alleged, but subsequent updated reports indicate that no injuries were alleged. NHTSA is opening this Audit Query ("AQ"), a standard process for reviewing compliance with legal requirements, to evaluate reporting accuracy and completeness. As part of this review, NHTSA will assess whether any reports of prior incidents remain outstanding and whether the reports that were submitted reflect complete and accurate data based on available information. The SGO incidents cited in the Opening Resume are listed below by report ID and are available for download at NHTSA.gov/laws-regulations/standing-general-order-crash-reporting: 31101-13612…
