General Motors pauses production of Cruise driverless van
) revealed Monday that the company plans to pause production on their Cruise fully autonomous Cruise Origin van. The announcement comes just days following an announcement that GM would pause driverless operations.
"We are finishing production on a small number of pre-commercial vehicles and after that, plan to temporarily pause production." Said a GM spokesperson. Cruise announced last month that they would suspend nationwide operations following the revocation of its license by California regulators. The regulators cited concerns that the deployment of self-driving vehicles posed a risk to public safety.
Although the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration had initially anticipated reaching a decision on the petition within a few weeks, a recent investigation was launched last month to determine whether Cruise has implemented adequate measures to protect pedestrians. This investigation comes in the wake of a previous probe initiated in December, which is still ongoing.
