General Motors\u2019 self-driving taxi service Cruise<\/a> has been operating on certain streets in San Francisco since June and now has plans to make its debut in Phoenix, Ariz. and Austin, Tex. in the next 90 days, according to<\/a> Cruise CEO and Co-Founder Kyle Vogt. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The all electric, driverless Cruise cars meet customers at the curb and drop them off at their destination, transporting one or two adults at a time and relying solely on technology. Using the Cruise app on their smartphone, riders can enter their destination, view the pick-up spot, unlock the car and start their ride. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As of now, the Cruise robotaxi service operates in areas of San Francisco between 10 p.m. and 5:30 a.m. and is only available through invite until more cars are available. San Francisco riders can join a waitlist<\/a> to receive an invite code that will allow them to create a Cruise account once a spot opens up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With customer approval in San Francisco, Vogt believes that the company will be able to successfully expand its services to larger areas and new cities, including Phoenix which currently has an autonomous vehicle presence. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
