General Motors Co‘s (NYSE:GM) autonomous vehicle subsidiary Cruise is reportedly continuing to test its vehicles on public roads in Dubai and Japan despite being deemed unsafe in the U.S.
What Happened: A “small pilot” of vehicles continue to be tested overseas, Reuters reported, citing a company spokesperson. The spokesperson did not confirm the size of the fleet.
The vehicles overseas are similar to the ones in the U.S. and it is unclear what differentiates the vehicles or makes them safer on foreign roads.
The authority further alleged that the company misrepresented information on the safety of its autonomous technology. The suspension of operations in Austin, Phoenix, and Houston followed a few days later.
Earlier this week, the company announced that it is also pausing supervised and manual AV operations in the U.S. “This orderly pause is a further step to rebuild public trust while we undergo a full safety review,” Cruise said, while adding that it will continue to operate its vehicles in “closed course training environments.”
