Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

CTOnews.com, November 20 (Xinhua) General Motors' self-driving car division Cruise has recently encountered a number of problems. Due to previous accidents in self-driving vehicle operation, Cruise's self-driving car business will be completely suspended, including supervised driving with safety guards will also be suspended, and the California Motor vehicle Administration (DMV) has revoked Cruise's self-driving license.

Today, Kyle Vogt, co-founder and CEO of Cruise, announced his resignation.

The past decade has been amazing, and I thank all the people who helped Cruise along the way. The startup I started in the garage has offered more than 250000 driverless rides in several cities, and each ride has sparked a little interest in the future.

Cruise has just started, and I believe it will have a bright future. Cruise's staff are talented, motivated and tenacious. They are implementing a reliable multi-year roadmap and an exciting product vision. I'm glad to see what Cruise will launch next!

To my former colleagues at Cruise and GM: you did it! No matter why you worked on autopilot in the first place, remember why this job is important. Our situation is bad, but together we prove that better things are just around the corner.

As for my next step, I plan to spend time with my family and explore some new ideas. Thank you for this wonderful journey!

GM has promoted Mo Elshenawy, executive vice president of Cruise engineering, to the new president and chief technology officer, but has not yet appointed a vacant CEO position, according to TechCrunch.

In August this year, ten Cruise Robotaxi cars suddenly stalled on the road, causing a traffic jam. A few days later, a Robotaxi rushed into the road construction area and got stuck in wet concrete, while a Robotaxi crashed into a fire engine at the intersection, causing passengers to be taken to hospital.

California's auto regulator announced on October 25th that Cruise's self-driving cars pose an "unreasonable risk" to public safety and "fail to meet the standards for road operation".

Cruise has suspended all driverless car operations in the public domain and will launch a recall of 950 vehicles.

Cruise is facing a number of federal investigations into the safety of its cars, including two cases in which driverless cars disobeyed pedestrians on the sidewalk.
