Comment on Waymo Partners with Toyota, Opening Door to Sell Autonomous Vehicles to Consumers
Psythik@lemm.ee 3 days agoThe Waymo cabs drive without occupants all the time, so assuming that it’s driving in a city that it’s familiar with (right now that’s LA, San Francisco, Phoenix, and Austin), I don’t see why the consumer version wouldn’t be able to.

I want to send the thing further down the river to wait for me on a whitewater trip, that would save so much hassle.

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.
