Both crashes involved Toyota Highlander SUVs with autonomous driving technology. They happened during daytime hours, and the agency confirmed that each of the Amazon vehicles was operating in autonomous mode leading up to the crashes. In one crash a motorcyclist suffered minor injuries, and a Zoox driver reported minor injuries in the other, according to reports. Both happened last month, one in San Francisco and the other in Spring Valley, Nevada.

The agency said the probe will focus on the performance of the company's automated driving system during the crashes, as well as how it behaves in crosswalks around pedestrians and other vulnerable road users.

In a statement, Zoox said it is committed to working with NHTSA to answer its questions. 鈥淭ransparency and collaboration with regulators is of utmost importance,鈥� the company said. Zoox said the vehicles had human safety drivers on board.

The agency said at the time that it would look into whether Zoox used its own test procedures to determine that certain federal standards weren鈥檛 applicable because of the robotaxi鈥檚 unique configuration.
