California DMV Suspends Cruise's Driverless Car Permits in San Francisco

The California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) has suspended the permits of autonomous vehicle company Cruise, a subsidiary of General Motors, citing safety concerns. The suspension does not affect the company's permit for testing with a safety driver. The DMV's decision comes after reports of Cruise's robotaxis making wrong turns, stalling in the middle of the road, and interfering with first responders. Cruise has also faced scrutiny following a hit-and-run crash involving one of its vehicles. The DMV has provided steps for Cruise to apply for reinstatement of the suspended permits.
