Testimonials

It worked so well that instead of making one trip to prove a point, I decided to replace some of my weekly driving trips with Waymo.

The Waymo Driver is our autonomous driving technology with unmatched experience and safety at heart

The Waymo Driver has over 20 million miles of real-world driving experience through countless situations - the equivalent of driving to the Moon and back 40 times.
We follow a rigorous safety framework that combines multiple methods that help verify and validate our safety readiness and meet applicable laws and regulations.
We’ve tested for over a decade in more than ten states, and today we are safely operating a fully autonomous, publicly available ride-hailing service in Phoenix, San Francisco, and Los Angeles.

faqs

How do I sign up to ride in the Metro Phoenix Territory?

Where do you operate locally?

Our Metro Phoenix territory currently includes Downtown Phoenix, Scottsdale, and parts of Tempe, Mesa, and Chandler. For more details see our service map.
Is it safe to be near  the lidar sensors on your vehicle?

Yes, the light is not hazardous. The low level of emissions falls under Class 1 limits and is essentially in the same category as lasers used in household appliances such as CD and DVD players.
What is the climate impact of your vehicles?

We use the fully-electric Jaguar I-PACE in Phoenix, and the chargers that we use are powered with 100% renewable energy.
What safety  measures do you employ?

We follow a rigorous safety framework that combines multiple methods that help verify and validate our safety readiness and meet applicable laws and regulations. We’re dedicated to providing safe rides to our passengers.
How do your cars know how to share the road with cyclists?

Many of us are cyclists ourselves, and our personal experiences on the road help shape our engineering and product decisions. We also work with local bicycle coalitions to make sure our testing and validation procedures account for a diverse range of scenarios. Our vehicles are equipped with a combination of sensors designed to see 360 degrees around the vehicle, day and night, and our vision system can identify details like pedestrians and stop signs up to 500 meters away. Vehicles driven by the Waymo Driver all share the same behavior — safe, courteous, reliable — which removes a lot of the uncertainty for those around them. Making sure all road users feel safe is a top priority for us.
Can the cars be hacked?

Protection against hacking is a key priority, which is why we have multiple layers of security designed to prevent unauthorized sources from accessing our autonomous driving system. Steering, braking, and controllers are isolated from outside communication. The onboard computer that maintains responsibility for the driving task at all times is shielded from wireless networks. When our vehicles communicate with our fleet response team, all cellular connections are encrypted. And we’re constantly evolving our technology to help ensure we have secure protections to provide a safe ride.
What do you do with the camera footage you collect?

The cameras on the exterior of the vehicle are used to help the Waymo Driver see and improve its ability to safely navigate the road. Cameras within the vehicle are a way for us to make sure your ride goes smoothly. Among other things, we may use cameras to: make sure cars are clean, find lost items, provide help in case of emergency, check that in-car rules are being followed, and improve products and services.
