Up until now, the autonomous cars in downtown Phoenix have operated with a company specialist in the driver seat.
Ride-hailers will soon be all alone when they hop into one of Waymo's white electric Jaguars for a trip through downtown Phoenix.
The service is starting in a limited area of the downtown service territory, which is roughly bounded by Interstate 17 on the west and south, Camelback Road on the north and 44th Street on the east. The company said it will be expanding the rider-only option area over time. In the video, Gallego sits in the back seat with a Waymo representative and takes note of how the car monitors conditions on the streets, for example slowing down to read the scene at intersections busy with other motorists and pedestrians.
