In a significant blow to General Motors (GM), the state of California has suspended the testing of Cruise self-driving cars, citing safety concerns following a series of accidents and mishaps. The Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) in California announced the suspension on Tuesday, becoming the latest regulatory body to express apprehensions about the safety of GM’s autonomous vehicles.
