California cancels Cruise's robotaxi permit after too many safety incidents

The Californian DMV has told General Motors' Cruise to cease operating driverless taxi services in the state immediately, declaring "based upon the performance of the vehicles, the Department determines the manufacturer's vehicles are not safe for the public's operation" and that "the manufacturer has misrepresented any information related to safety of the autonomous technology of its vehicles". Big claims for along with Waymo, were considered the gold standard of autonomous driving. Vice reckons Cruise tried to cover up a rather nasty pedestrian incident, on top of campaigning from San Francisco emergency services who are sick of dealing with the bullshit these cars create on public roads.
