Waymo began as the Google self-driving car project in 2009. Today, we're an independent self-driving technology company with a mission to make it safe and easy for everyone to get around—without the need for anyone in the driver’s seat.
Imagine if everyone could get around easily and safely, without tired, drunk or distracted driving. Time spent commuting could be time spent doing what you want, as the car handles all of the driving.
We drive more than 25,000 autonomous miles each week, largely on complex city streets. That’s on top of 2.7 billion simulated miles we drove just in 2017.
We continue to drive every day on public roads. Now, we’re inviting residents in Phoenix, AZ to join the first public trial of our self-driving cars—Waymo’s early rider program.
