On 24 October 2024, the California Department of Motor Vehicles announced that it "notified Cruise that the department is suspending Cruise’s autonomous vehicle deployment and driverless testing permits, effective immediately. The DMV has provided Cruise with the steps needed to apply to reinstate its suspended permits, which the DMV will not approve until the company has fulfilled the requirements to the department’s satisfaction. This decision does not impact the company’s permit for testing with a safety driver" (California DMV, US News & World Report). Permitting a successor-in-interest of Cruise LLC would count, and the number of permitted vehicles is immaterial. The question will close as of the date new permits take effect.
