Used Waymo In the city, went great. I would use it over Uber any day. Looking forward to getting it in San Mateo.

I hope AVs can free seniors from being confined in their homes to places they want to go, especially given the lack of alternatives to driving in the East Bay. Once the problems are ironed out, that is.

And more importantly, get the seniors OFF the road who shouldn't be driving but still do.

Lack of alternatives? AC Transit, senior shuttles, BART, uber, lyft, cabs...there's all kinds of alternatives, what's missing?

@@mrsleep0000 half of those require technology or apps that seniors have trouble using. The other half have very poor coverage re reliability. I’m thinking Concord, Martinez. Have you tried to take a bus anywhere in the suburbs of those places? Walking to the bus stop alone is like 30min. That’s a hard ask for a 75 year old.
I'm all for it. Competition lowers prices and increases service quality.
This is what is important to us in the Bay Area. How much excess can perpetuate. Driverless cars, AI talking to us instead of talking to real people. Anything we can do to actually accomplish nothing. Having people in other countries do the coding for products and services they are completely disconnected from. Generations before us built monumental architecture spanned bridges across treacherous waters.
Canepa needs to see all the accidents caused by human drivers. 😅

40k to 50k people die each year in car crashes.
Yes !!!! Mobile toilets 🚽💩😃
Why don't we just expand BART down the Peninsula instead?
It's like randomised manslaughter. And this is somehow legal, in the USA. Absolutely insane.
Looking forward to it in my neighborhoodin the South Bay.

Automated cars also don't have the *brains* of a human driver with years of experience. FSD is nothing like a human driver. Waymo either.

The real solution is more public transportation, along with better designing cities for people, not cars. We need less cars on the road, and at slower speeds.
Oh Lord, please no. I hate driving behind these. They always get stuck in weird situations.

A human driver doesn't get stuck. An Uber driver is better than most people. He has many more miles on the road, and he's seen it all.

Why cant they try in india, there is no value for human life. No law and order as well. It will be easy to test there😂😂😂

it's great when waymo regulates itself, i'm sure they'll do the right thing when billions of dollars are on the line 🙄
