So if I get in an accident, it’s the cars fault not mine. When you tell your car insurance agent that my car drivers itself does he call a shrink or a cop
Yes let's put more people out of a job...that's precisely what we need. It's not like there aren't people out there who are using taxis/uber/lyft/etc as a second job to make ends meet.
I could be wrong but think 100% driverless cars are similar to flying cars. They have both and both do work but there's too many issues that make them not practical for the general public.....I think eventually 100% self driving will get here but will probably need sensors installed in all roadways to become safer & trouble free. Similar to how all roads had to get paved with traffic 🚥 lights & signs everywhere.
So, if this car causes an accident, and a furious driveres comes at this car, who do you think is going to take the brunt of the confrontation? The innocent passenger.
Drove behind one of these things last night in LA and the thing slammed its brakes on at a green light for no reason and we nearly ran into the back of it. These should not be allowed. How about your Governor fixes the pikes of rubbish on the streets, the homeless tent cities and drug addicts lying all over the street before promoting stupid driverless cars?
Can u imagine how many people will lose jobs, especially the ones that rely on uber or lyft as their main source of income?? This is sickening to watch. Hopefully this service does not work out.
Thank you! And the same mofos who want to whine and complain about "get a job!" are the same ones who support these practices. Like do they want people to work or not?
Yeah but do people want those jobs? I used to work for a public utility and they had jobs for people to physically read the gas and electricity meters of every house. Those jobs are long gone but those people all found new jobs within the company. Can't stop progress.

I wonder how many languages it understands and I have reservations as to how it might respond to adverse weather conditions that might present themselves from time to time.
Currently the app is in English, Spanish, and Chinese (simplified and traditional). It does pretty well in most “normal” weather and there are videos of them preforming well in heavy rain in San Francisco and lighter dust storms in Phoenix. It struggles more with snow and they shut down the ride share service in the heaviest weather like tropical storms. Snow testing is ongoing in more northern cities (I think mostly Michigan).
@@jeremydeath- I'm curious how it will respond to our earthquakes, wildfires and flooding opportunities that we have here in California. Grant it, it's not everyday. But when it happens (and it will), will these vehicles just shut themself down leaving any occupants in danger or will it just malfunction and crash? I suspect these vehicles do not have the technology to be able to drive aggressively when it is necessary to protect and save lives. Makes one wonder that's for sure.
Shortly after the Waymo Driverless Taxis are introduced, the Pentagon sees potential to help with its vehicle problems. The Pentagon becomes so efficient that Washington decides to extend the technology to law enforcement. Police become obsolete and are replaced with robotic technology. Afterwards, law enforcement operates with a perfect operational record. Congress then decides to expand the technology in the Pentagon. The Robotic Defense funding bill is passed in Congress. The system goes online on October 4th, 2024. Human decisions are removed from strategic defense. The Department of Robotic Defense begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware 2:14 AM, EST, November 5th Election Day. In a panic, they try to pull the plug… Robotic Defense fights back.
I really wish in the near future people can just sleep in their cars, and its 5 hours drive from their work, when its time, people sleep while the car sel-driving to their work and before 1 hr-30 min from arriving, the car wake you up, so they can start breakfast and enjoy the views.
This has been coming for many years. And now it’s here. Yellow taxis practically disappeared years ago. Watching how carefully this car is driving - I’d be much more comfortable in this Driverless car than many of the poorly-driven rides I’ve been on! There have been so many accidents because of unprofessional drivers acting cavalier and recklessly. The driverless car has no ego. ✨🚕🚙
These cars work good until they get into a weird situation and don’t know what to do. The ones in Austin will just freeze in the middle of the road if the programming doesn’t know what to do.
I'd be afraid to become a target to a criminal. Basically you're a sitting duck because if someone approached the car, it would just sit there and let the attacker do what it wanted to do. A human driver would be able to get away.
This driverless vehicle has a very positive aspect that I am extremely fond of. Rideshare customers cannot get in and say, 'I hope I make my flight, or oh no, I'm running late for work, or I will give you a cash tip if you can get me there really fast. My favorite who's going to help customers load/unload their luggage. I'm sure the vehicle will have dual cameras and smoke detectors because who will be at fault if there are any cigarette smoke smells, vomiting on the seat, or trash. After all, you can say it was like that when I entered the vehicle.
have they resolved the question of accountability if you're the passenger of a driverless car getting pulled over by a beat officer for a moving violation?
These will be relatively affordable, until all the driver taxi's and ride shares are gone. These cannot be profitable at the current rates. The reason Ubers are "affordable", is because the driver pays for the car, insurance, maintenance, gas/energy, storage... etc. 10 years ago, a home key was around $1. Now its $5, thanks to those key machines.
Its a Jaguar, what a great choice for a driverless car. Its so safe and pollutes so little that it will pull over a call a tow truck when it breaks down and forces you to walk to your destination.
People are still required to have a drivers license to get in a driverless or self-driving car though. After awhile then no license is required by 2050.
I will Never, take a ride in a car that has no drvier. I Support Humans, not machines. Machines can be useful, but is Unecceptable, businesses try to deprive humans from work and replace them with machines.
La is not the only thing that Uber waymo is coming to it's going to be coming to a city near you including Seattle. And what's going to be more exciting about this is that there will be more people using Uber waymo including myself who is legally blind and partially sighted. So what this will mean the public transportation is that if you have an autonomous car running Uber in limo together you're going to start seeing a lot of passengers from these public transportation outfits like here in Seattle Metro Transit and sound Transit basically those self-driving vehicles will take the place of said companies here in seattle. Because I can tell you right now that was going to happen is you're going to start seeing less passengers on public transportation and more people including myself using waymo Uber!
I hope that they make self driving cars like these in the future that we can buy and own instead of just using them as taxis. It would mean so much to us that don’t know how to drive. I really hope in the future that they do so I can go out whenever I want.
The same as with other apps like Uber - if you are already in the car you don't need the phone to finish the ride. You only need it to unlock the doors.
How do these waymo responds to those stop lights that are out of service? Specially there are times stop lights is blinking in red lights which cars can go one car at a time as first car arrives goes first alternately so how waymo robot cars responds? When a pedestrian or cyclist decides to cut you in a milisecond in a blink of an eye, do they stop as fast as how humans do?
Imagine the day when they connect these cars to people that play the driving simulator video games. They can literally work from home by controlling the car.
We need this to become normal. We wouldn't need to own a car if we can just call one to come to you. DUI's wouldn't exist, high speed chases wouldn't exist, you don't need to pay for car insurance and mainly traffic would go away
You have a very idyllic view of the world don't you? The people who DUI are still going to drive themselves. If they're not calling an Uber, a friend, etc., they're not going to call one of these.
This is going to destroy people who make a living with Uber. Wasn’t this in San Francisco? Now moving them over to Los Angeles? Oh, it’s going to destroy LA. WE DO NOT NEED ROBOT CARS! These news reporters got paid by the company to advertise.
You obviously don't understand that it isn't able to hit someone unles they literally ran in front in the last second where a regual person would also hit them. They have sensors and cameras all around the car. Much safter than a human.
I would not trust my life to a driverless car. Maybe if it was on a closed course, I'd do it but on city streets, no thanks. What would the car do if an animal ran into the street and there was a large truck right behind the car tailgating it? Would it hit the animal or slam on the brakes and have the truck smash the car? Or, what if a criminal stands in front of the car and pulls out a gun? Would the car open the doors and let the criminal rob everyone? Would it run the criminal over? Would it do nothing? These are real life things that could easily happen.
I'm an American expat living in Shenzhen, China. We have had these for a few years now. Quite a cool experience and worth a go. The left turns were so crisp and perfect. Absolutely amazing. Give it a go!
The Chinese like other east Asian countries are for the most part law abiding and are sticklers for law and order.... They hardly break traffic laws and are obedient to authority, the U.S is a different animal.. Motorists break traffic laws by the thousands everyday and are many times hostile to authority... Let me ask you how this, how many drunk driving crashes or traffic fatalities do you have there in Shenzhen?
Cool, this looks like a great way to get from pt A to B with the correct infrastructure! There are many issues, but I try to be positive.

This is going to destroy people who make a living with Uber. Wasn’t this in San Francisco? Now moving them over to Los Angeles? Oh, it’s going to destroy LA. WE DO NOT NEED ROBOT CARS! These news reporters got paid by the company to advertise.
Uber and Lyft are not going to like this
Good
Driverless taxis hit the streets till they hit someone.
You obviously don't understand that it isn't able to hit someone unles they literally ran in front in the last second where a regual person would also hit them. They have sensors and cameras all around the car. Much safter than a human.
I see a ghost in the driver seat
Anybody notice they're not Teslas?
The big push to get us to buy these stupid things
Um you can't buy it do no one is forcing you. it's a taxi service you don't like it just don't take it and take a normal taxi or uber.
She did sound nervous at the beginning 😂
I would not trust my life to a driverless car. Maybe if it was on a closed course, I'd do it but on city streets, no thanks. What would the car do if an animal ran into the street and there was a large truck right behind the car tailgating it? Would it hit the animal or slam on the brakes and have the truck smash the car? Or, what if a criminal stands in front of the car and pulls out a gun? Would the car open the doors and let the criminal rob everyone? Would it run the criminal over? Would it do nothing? These are real life things that could easily happen.
HITTING the road, how many points is that already, and who’s license gets dinged…
🤔
What if another car causes accident with this WayMo car?
Thanks for using Jonny cab.
I'm an American expat living in Shenzhen, China. We have had these for a few years now. Quite a cool experience and worth a go. The left turns were so crisp and perfect. Absolutely amazing. Give it a go!
Wooooo the gov has eyes on you over there, no doubt they think you’re a spy 😂
The Chinese like other east Asian countries are for the most part law abiding and are sticklers for law and order....
They hardly break traffic laws and are obedient to authority, the U.S is a different animal..
Motorists break traffic laws by the thousands everyday and are many times hostile to authority...
Let me ask you how this, how many drunk driving crashes or traffic fatalities do you have there in Shenzhen?
Cool, this looks like a great way to get from pt A to B with the correct infrastructure! There are many issues, but I try to be positive. The other problems in LA County such as the lack of affordable housing mentioned in another comment are separate issues that we should obviously address, but take this type of progress one step at a time. 🤔😀
Why?
