https://thehill.com/policy/technology/419871-waymo-launches-robotaxi-service-in-arizona
Waymo, a subsidiary of Google parent company Alphabet Inc., on Wednesday launched a commercial robotaxi service in Arizona
Waymo began developing driverless cars in 2009.
The new Waymo One service works similar to Uber or Lyft, where users download an app on which they load payment info. A Waymo engineer will sit behind the wheel in case anything goes wrong, but the cars will primarily drive themselves.
=============================================
This pilot program will be initially restricted to a few hundred customers in the Phoenix suburbs.
The coming big revolution is going to be driverless long-haui trucks.
