I took a ride in one of their fully autonomous cars in San Francisco. See how it works, from booking a ride to driving on city streets without anyone in the driver's seat.

Great to see how much fun you had with that story! Loved it!

I was worried about how the robocar would handle the junctions and other traffic, but having watched some guy tell me about how to put luggage in the car and charge his phone I now have complete faith in the sensors and the predictive algorithms used to make the robocar safe on the roads. Good job.

This is an advertorial for Waymo. Iām pretty sure this is sponsored content paid for by the company to KTLA. Iām not mad at it. I just wish there was a āsponsored contentā ticker somewhere in the story so we know when itās paid news story or not.

in the future hackers are going to love self driving cars

My family and I took rides in Waymo in Phoenix this week. It was great and safe. Looking forward to Waymo coming to LA.

Waymooooā¦. Hi Waymoooo!! I see them all the time where I am in Culver City/Palms California!

Since the layout of the streets of San Francisco can be extremely convoluted, I am very surprised there are not more issues. I find it extremely impressive that Waymo obtained regulatory approval and put robotaxi's on the road before Tesla despite all their publicity and hype that pervades the internet. Congratulations!!!

Only seen these video of cars in perfect sunny day operations. How about a ride through Chicago in January!?

Who was in the front seat though? Part of the crew or with the car company?

Hmm š¤ Johnny Cab from the movie, Total Recall ??š

It's all fun until a basement dweller starts hacking the car and gives u the ride of ur life with a wild police chase as the icing on the cake

I really feel like in near future its gonna put both uber, lift, and cab drivers in general out of jobs if more self driving cabs are being used

The last people had the funny idea of putting 69 as the current temp I see lol š¤£

How coooool it is! Green powered?

Wish to see it in Seattle too. :)

Im imagining the AI cars having road rage. They see every imperfection about our driving. Its going to pass me 5mph above the speed limit blaring its horn at me while siri cusses me out š

There was no one in the driver's seat, but who was the woman in the front passenger seat, evidently hiding from the camera?

If that thing can drive in San Francisco it can drive anywhere! Driving in San Francisco is easily one of the hardest places to drive.

I cannot wait until laemmle one starts running out here in Washington state primarily in the Seattle area. And what could be fun about it is this that I'm going to be able to get used to it and that's going to be it. But since I am legally blind in one eye I'm going to have a tough time trying to navigate the app!
