GENERAL Motors' self-driving service Cruise has received approval to test its newest robotaxi in San Francisco. Cruise is pushing to get to $1billion in driverless taxi revenue by 2025 and as much as $50 billion by 2030. The company aims to expand its paid service to all of San Francisco and run it 24 hours a day. Since becoming a testing ground for these new companies over the last several months, San Francisco has seen 92 self-driving incidents. According to San Francisco’s CTA, on April 5, 2022, a Cruise vehicle stopped in a travel lane, obstructing a fire response vehicle on the way to a call.
