Automotive giant General Motors announced Tuesday that it would be pulling funding from its robotaxi firm Cruise, though it gestured at future plans to continue developing self-driving cars.

It was reported Cruise admitted to lying to federal investigators about the event. The news came after the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration hit Cruise with a $1.5 million fine.

General Motors has announced that it will stop funding the development of the Cruise self-driving taxi. The company says it will now "refocus autonomous driving development on personal vehicles". GM also pointed to the increasingly competitive robotaxi market as a reason for the move.
