  • General Motors pulled the plug on its Cruise robotaxi business on Tuesday night, a move marking a dramatic step back in its autonomous ambitions that began eight years ago.

General Motors' autonomous vehicle unit, Cruise, has decided to exit the robotaxi market in San Francisco following a series of operational challenges and regulatory scrutiny. This decision comes after an incident where a Cruise robotaxi was involved in an accident with a pedestrian, leading to the suspension of its driverless testing permit by the California Department of Motor Vehicles. The exit is part of a broader strategy to rebuild trust with regulators and the public, focusing on improving technology and safety protocols. Cruise plans to shift its focus to other cities like Austin and Phoenix, where it aims to relaunch its services with a more cautious approach. This move also reflects Cruise's acknowledgment of the need for a more gradual rollout of autonomous vehicle technology, emphasizing safety and reliability over rapid expansion.
