Motional

Products: n/a. Risk band: Elevated   RobotRisk index 37.1/100 (incidents/exposure, time-weighted) · 94th percentile of 89 av trucking companies.

Analyst brief

The record consists of a single NHTSA Standing General Order entry noting eleven ADS crash reports on file as of August 2026, rated severity 3, the highest raw crash-report count among the four companies sharing this index tier. This is a regulator-sourced disclosure record rather than a press-driven narrative, with no additional detail on crash type or outcome. The index of 42.9 and 87.5th percentile place Motional in the elevated tier of av-trucking, identical in index and percentile to WeRide, Stack AV, and Nuro. The record reflects filing volume alone, with no trajectory or pattern detail beyond the single reported count.
