Waymo, a self-driving car development company formerly owned by Google, reportedly planned to introduce a fully autonomous taxi area that would cover about 100 square miles in metro Phoenix.
The New York Times reported that Waymo CEO John Krafcik told reporters last week that the cars will be able to handle any condition.
“Members of the public will be able to take our cars anywhere in our service area,” he told the paper. “We will be driving everywhere — dense, urban centers, high-speed roads, low-speed roads, suburbs. There’s every driving scenario to be imagined.”
There was no timeline given, but the Times said Waymo had planned to provide as many as one million rides per day by next year.
