I just hope that the consumer version will give you the option to change your route, cause the Waymo taxis love to drive through random neighborhoods with a 25 MPH speed limit and increase your travel time, instead of sticking to major roads.
They also have a tendency to make illegal turns, randomly brake for no reason (especially in the middle of a turn), and they love to slam on the gas and accelerate as fast as possible, only to drive 5 MPH under the speed limit.
That said, I still trust them more than the average driver on the road. They just need to work out the kinks.
Wishful thinking but that’s not happening anytime soon. At least not in a Waymo. They only work in designated urban areas, and need thousands of hours of training before they can take on new routes.
Not to mention that a traffic cone can tbrk/confuse them; I can’t even imagine a Waymo trying to go off road without freaking out over every little rock in the way.
