Waymo recently stated that it has clocked up a million miles with no human safety drivers and no injuries.
The Google sister Waymo is the leading company in the field of autonomous driving. They were the first to reach the million autonomous miles and they were the first to offer a robotic taxi in the US. But in the US there is also because of Tesla bad vibes about tech right now. Recently has the AAA found that the number of rejections has increased.
Waymo’s published data could help boost confidence in the technology. Waymo announced that their vehicles clocked one million miles in January. There were no security personnel on board and there were no incidents of injuries or even fatalities during the time.
However, there were two incidents that required a police investigation. But these incidents were not due to the computer. In one instance, a man hit a Waymo cab because he looked at his cell phone while driving. In the other case, too, a car drove into the back of the Waymo vehicle. There were also 18 minor incidents, with the computer not at fault either.
