Waymo to customers: 'Completely driverless Waymo cars are on the way'
Waymo, the autonomous vehicle business under Alphabet, sent an email to customers of its ride-hailing app that their next trip might not have a human safety driver behind the wheel, according to a copy of the email that was posted on the subreddit r/SelfDrivingCars. The email, entitled "Completely driverless Waymo cars are on the way," was sent to customers that use its ride-hailing app in the suburbs of Phoenix. Both the early rider program and Waymo One service use self-driving Chrysler Pacifica minivans to shuttle Phoenix residents in a geofenced area that covers several suburbs, including Chandler and Tempe.
