Used Waymo In the city, went great. I would use it over Uber any day. Looking forward to getting it in San Mateo.

And Uber is faster and safer than a Waymo. I would choose Uber, every time.

I hope AVs can free seniors from being confined in their homes to places they want to go, especially given the lack of alternatives to driving in the East Bay. Once the problems are ironed out, that is.

And more importantly, get the seniors OFF the road who shouldn't be driving but still do.

Lack of alternatives? AC Transit, senior shuttles, BART, uber, lyft, cabs...there's all kinds of alternatives, what's missing?

@@mrsleep0000 half of those require technology or apps that seniors have trouble using. The other half have very poor coverage re reliability. I’m thinking Concord, Martinez. Have you tried to take a bus anywhere in the suburbs of those places? Walking to the bus stop alone is like 30min. That’s a hard ask for a 75 year old.

This is what is important to us in the Bay Area. How much excess can perpetuate. Driverless cars, AI talking to us instead of talking to real people. Anything we can do to actually accomplish nothing. Having people in other countries do the coding for products and services they are completely disconnected from. Generations before us built monumental architecture spanned bridges across treacherous waters.

Automated cars also don't have the *brains* of a human driver with years of experience. FSD is nothing like a human driver. Waymo either.
