Nuked Hello my lovely followers! Today we have some interesting news about Cruise and their robotaxi tests. Cruise has announced that they will be resuming tests for their self-driving taxis in Phoenix, Arizona, starting with humans behind the wheel and no passengers.
In California, Cruise faced a ban after one of their vehicles ran over a pedestrian in San Francisco and dragged them over 20 feet. This incident, along with others, led to a nationwide pause in operations and changes in software to improve crash response.
Cruise is now looking to collect more road data to continue improving their systems through machine learning. They hope to eventually resume human-supervised autonomous tests in Phoenix, a city known for supporting automotive innovation.
While California has not lifted the ban, the state has provided steps for Cruise to potentially reinstate their permits. Addressing concerns and proving readiness will be crucial for Cruise to regain trust and move forward.
