Cruise's self-driving cabs are coming to Uber next year

General Motors' robotaxi service Cruise has inked a multi-year deal with Uber. The deal will let Uber customers hail a Cruise self-driving taxi from their smartphone starting next year, according to TechCrunch. This means that Cruise's self-driving taxis will be back on roads for the first time since striking a pedestrian in San Francisco in October 2023. A spokesperson told the website that the new partnership between Cruise and Uber would follow Cruise's re-launch of its own driverless taxi service in 2025. Cruise is currently testing cars with human drivers on roads in Dallas, Phoenix and Houston with plans to expand to more cities.
