It was a smorgasbord of news that seemed to touch every sector and theme in transportation, including tariffs on Chinese EVs, an escalating Tesla strike in Sweden, a federal investigation into Waymo, a buzzy EV IPO, executive shuffling at Ford, and an Uber shuttle service developed for commuters in India and Egypt that has been adapted for American concertgoers.

As you might recall, it died in 2022, but founder Denis Sverdlov (who also founded the now-defunct EV startup Arrival) had talked about trying to revive it if more funds were secured.

EU 'closely' monitoring X in wake of Fico shooting as DSA disinfo probe rumbles on
European Union enforcers of the bloc's online governance regime, the Digital Services Act (DSA), said Thursday they're closely monitoring disinformation campaigns on the Elon Musk-owned social network X (formerly Twitter) following the Wednesday shooting of Slovakia's prime minister, Robert Fico. The bloc has been formally investigating X since last December over disinformation in civic discourse and the effectiveness of the platform's crowdsourced 'Community Notes' content moderation feature, among a bundle of other concerns -- though, so far, no sanctions have been forthcoming. Yesterday Musk personally responded to -- and thus amplified -- a post on X, by the right-wing political influencer, Ian Miles Cheong, which sought to link the shooting to views he suggested Fico holds rejecting the World Health Organization's pandemic prevention plan.
