Waymo’s fully driverless vehicles are doing passenger trips in the suburbs outside Phoenix, Arizona. We got to experience it first hand, and our ride included a close brush with a construction site, a wrong turn, and a flock of pigeons. But more importantly, it got us thinking about what it means when Waymo says the future is driverless, and what we lose when we eliminate human driving.

Would you go for a ride in a fully driverless car or are you still hesitant?
50 years from now.. self driving cars are like Ubers today.. it’s normal .. taxi with no drivers in it..
Maximum Overdrive
There are much more driveless cars from China than from America.
I think the challenge will come when they gonna drive on snow! Like canadien snow I mean! I think it is doable but will be challenging.
Why is every new technology involves less and less human involvement we’re architecting our own demise. Stay woke peace
I’d be scared riding in this
This explains why my maps been lagging 😅😂 cool creation though
Tesla fsd b way better
Also cheaper
It is not practical though where many people are jobless
Your dad is a good driver 👍
Pass I prefer to be in control of drving
We will own nothing and be happy
They’re waymo safer than regular cars
“Your dad is a nice driver!” 💀
3:28… steering wheel going a bit crazy. What’s up with that ?
Captain James T. Kirk : Vice Admirals don’t fly, do they?
Commodore Paris : No. They don’t.
Captain James T. Kirk : Well, no offense, ma’am, but… where’s the fun in that?
John Cena driving.
This would freak out drunks?
EVERYONE LISTEN UP THESES CARS ARE BAD BECAUSE THESES ARE NOT PROGRAMMED TO STOP WHEN THE AMBULANCE OR POLICE COME THEY JUST STAY THERE AND HAVE CAUSED MANY ACCIDENTS “not to me mean just a warning ⚠️ “
PLUS MY TEACHER SAID THAT THE ONE WHO MADE THEM QUIT BECAUSE HE WAS TEACHING A COMPUTER HOW TO KINDA BE LIKR US AND THE COUMPUTER SAID why can’t I be a human? AND HE QUIT DONT YOU THINK THAT IS CREEPY??? LIKE IF HE DIDN’T WANT TO LISTEN TO HIM THTS WHAT MDE HIM QUIT HIS JOB
I wouldn’t what to Risk my life it’s too risky and because of all that I said to so…like
Society itself is eventually getting rather lazy, but that’s ok since it’s good for those who can’t drive a car at all.
The cheapest vision is trace the lane by ir then use scanner to trace the interference marked out the lane then use uv to trace the lane marking or shoulder lane and compare to map for destination and speed limit then use purple fine resolution to avoid spirit prevent hitting ghost too
Did anyone notice, 25 seconds, that driverless van going through a light as the side that we could see was turning green? 🤔
Mars, here we come 😂
that would be awesome to take a trip like San Francisco or some thing
1:26 “Oh Lord there’s no driver in that car!”
Report accidents this Robo had in some cities
I just see people saying wow technology evolving and such but no one cares that more and more we are heading towards the unemployment of many drivers. 😏😏
Would they ever have this in the streets of New York?
I live in downtown Phoenix and most days I am sharing the road with a handful of Waymo cars and I have to say as a driver I’ve been pretty impressed by them. I thought that I would feel a little uncomfortable with them on the road while I’m on the road but they have cameras and sensors all over them. I’ve noticed that they will change lanes if another car gets too close. My teenager told me that he and a friend rode in one. I kinda freaked out a little but he said it was a nice ride and cheaper than Uber. I’m thinking about trying it.
When the vehicle becomes disoriented the controller should ask a licensed passenger to move the vehicle to a safe location. Cruise can compensate you rather than have you sit in traffic waiting for them to dispatch a driver.
I wonder how the car would handle traffic being “manually” directed and controlled when road work is being done OR a police officer directing traffic in a random areafor some unknown reason. Either way, what a fantastic time to be alive to see things like this come to fruition. We thought the Jetson’s was cool back in the day seeing all of their futuristic gadgets but seeing simular items in my lifetime is such a wonderful thing 🙂
Can we invest in this would be a good investment to do
Wreckless Behavior. u’r Supposed to Sit in The Front Seat at All Times Incase Something Goes Wrong.
In Other Countries u Would be Charged For This.
I guarantee you it had problems finding the destination like I’m seeing another video… They kind of conveniently jumped over to drop off scene
Tesla
I don’t like it. That’s just wrong.
Don’t use technology to become lazy.
When i get won I’m going to go to Calgary
I STILL Don’t believe this is possible
Haw much kost
Is there really such a car that drives without driver and has a one seat near the sterling wheel
What if criminals are after you, what will be your safety?
