Cruise on Monday announced its robotaxis will return to the road for the primary time since last October, when the fleet was parked following an accident with a pedestrian in San Francisco.

The relaunch will happen in Phoenix, and only two robotaxis will probably be in operation initially, in each case with a security driver behind the wheel.

Cruise began its service in Phoenix in 2023, and the corporate on Monday said robotaxis will eventually be deployed in other parts of Arizona, including Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, Tempe, Mesa, Gilbert, and Chandler.

The corporate hasn’t said when it would resume operations in San Francisco, the primary city where its robotaxi service was launched. Town can also be the placement of Cruise’s headquarters.

Cruise has been under extra scrutiny because the accident, which saw a female pedestrian thrown into the trail of certainly one of its robotaxi after she was hit by one other vehicle within the adjoining lane. The driving force of the opposite non-Cruise vehicle fled the scene.

Cruise’s robotaxi braked hard to avoid the impact but still got here into contact with the pedestrian. Following an initial stop, the robotaxi then continued for one more 20 feet in try to pull over, which Cruise said was done to avoid further road questions of safety. Nevertheless, the maneuver resulted within the robotaxi dragging the pedestrian.

The California DMV responded by pulling the permit that allowed Cruise’s robotaxis to operate with no safety driver. Cruise followed by ceasing operations of its robotaxis nationwide. Company co-founders Kyle Vogt and Daniel Kan, who on the time were serving as CEO and chief product officer, respectively, quit the subsequent month.

General Motors is the largest backer of the self-driving technology startup, and the automaker, which supplies vehicles for Cruise’s robotaxi fleets, has said it stays committed to the enterprise. GM alone has invested near $6 billion in Cruise because the start of 2020. Honda, Microsoft, and Walmart have also invested in Cruise.
