WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The Biden administration’s nominee to serve as the top auto safety regulator said Thursday he hopes the agency can complete its investigations into electric car maker Tesla soon.
Steven Cliff, deputy administrator of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and nominated for the top job, was asked about the agency’s probes into Tesla and he said “we hope to have those investigations wrapped up soon.” He said he did not have a “precise timeline.”
