☆ GM halts funding of robotaxi development by Cruise
  + stars: | 2024-12-10 | by ( Lora Kolodny | In Lorakolodny | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +3 min
General Motors will no longer fund its Cruise division's robotaxi development, the company said on Tuesday. GM said it plans to instead "realign its autonomous driving strategy" to focus on advanced driver assistance systems and autonomous systems for use in personal vehicles. The decision to halt its emerging robotaxi service came after collisions, a clash with regulators and the suspension of permits that allowed it to operate a robotaxi ride hailing service in California. At that point, Cruise began to focus on using the next-generation Chevrolet Bolt for development of its autonomous vehicles. SoftBank-funded Wayve is testing its autonomous vehicles in San Francisco, and Amazon-owned Zoox is also testing its autonomous vehicles, which do not feature steering wheels, in several U.S. cities including San Francisco.

☆ GM's Cruise recalls 300 self-driving vehicles to update software after bus crash

WASHINGTON, April 7 (Reuters) - General Motors' (GM.N) robotaxi unit Cruise LLC is recalling the automated driving software in 300 vehicles after one of its driverless vehicles crashed into the back of a San Francisco bus. The March 23 collision was the fault of a software error in a Cruise automated vehicle (AV) that inaccurately predicted the movement of an articulated San Francisco Municipal Transit Authority bus, Cruise said on Friday. The crash caused moderate damage to the Cruise but did not result in any injuries. Cruise in September disclosed that it recalled and updated software in 80 self-driving vehicles after a June crash in San Francisco that left two people injured. NHTSA in December opened a formal safety probe into the Cruise autonomous driving system after it received reports of incidents in which self-driving Cruise vehicles "may engage in inappropriately hard braking or become immobilized."
☆ Cruise robotaxis blocked a road in San Francisco after a storm downed trees and wires

General Motors ' self-driving vehicle unit Cruise acknowledged that some of its cars stalled out on city streets in San Francisco following rainstorms that downed trees there on Tuesday night. After that, another tree on Polk and Clay streets fell into the street. In response, he said, the San Francisco Fire Department had blocked off Clay between Polk and Jones streets with caution tape. He said the driverless Cruise vehicles did not appear to detect and avoid the caution tape and bus wires properly, and instead became "tangled in them." Cruise has permits to test and deploy autonomous vehicles in San Francisco all hours of day and night, excluding heavy rain."
☆ Regulators Launch Probe of GM’s Cruise Autonomous-Driving System

U.S. auto-safety regulators have launched an investigation into the autonomous-driving system used by General Motors Co.’s driverless-car unit.

☆ U.S. opens safety probe into autonomous driving system in GM's Cruise vehicles
  + stars: | 2022-12-16 | by ( David Shepardson | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +3 min
WASHINGTON, Dec 16 (Reuters) - U.S. auto safety regulators said Friday they have opened a formal safety probe into the autonomous driving system in vehicles produced by General Motors' (GM.N) robotaxi unit Cruise LLC. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said it has received notices of incidents in which self-driving Cruise vehicles "may engage in inappropriately hard braking or become immobilized." The agency said while both issues "appear to be distinct, they each result in the Cruise vehicles becoming unexpected roadway obstacles." The safety agency's preliminary evaluation covers 242 Cruise autonomous vehicles and is the first step before it could seek a recall. The investigation follows reports of three crashes in which Cruise vehicles were struck from behind by other cars after the autonomous vehicles braked quickly.
☆ GM’s Cruise Seeks Regulatory OK to Test Shuttle With No Steering Wheel
  + stars: | 2022-11-30 | by ( Ryan Felton | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
General Motors Co.’s driverless-car unit has requested approval from California regulators to begin public testing of a shuttle that has no steering wheel or manual controls, showing the auto maker’s determination to make progress on autonomous vehicles as rivals step back. GM’s Cruise LLC division in August submitted an application to the California Department of Motor Vehicles, requesting permission to test its Origin driverless vehicle on San Francisco streets, according to a copy of the document obtained through a public records request.
