Yup waymos are all over the place in phx area. Teslas might not do it but that doesn’t mean nobody can. This isn’t even Chinese electric cars with crazy features as well
Phoenix has all their weather in Late Aug through Early Sep, in the form of monsoons and haboobs. Then again in late Jan through early Feb, in the form of frost and a light dusting of snow that immediately melts.
Your source is waymo's own propaganda (which is NOT about cities in general it's about nine specific American cities), my source against even that much is everyone else seeing them get stuck regularly:
If it is relevant it's a strong premise to add to the argument to why we need to strip people of their licenses, but that's not germaine to the conversion.
Dumbass, it means what causes one waymo an accident or blockage, blocks them all. This is not so with drivers. What's more drivers learn immediately.
Take your anti-human, pro-billionaire bullshit elsewhere. My point was already proven with Waymo its self not being able to tackle cities in general... Which is the fucking topic. Not how much you'll bend over for them.
I am not anti human or pro billionaire. Your inferences about me are unfounded.
I am calling you out for a lack of functional argument. Your statement "Waymo cannot navigate cities" loads the idea that because there Waymo lacks a human there is no variance in decision making.
Let's concede, for sake of argument, all Waymo make the same decision every time without fail.
Let's further suppose a group of persons learned to drive and were told you cannot pull out into the intersection for a left turn. Now you have a group of people who clearly will make the same decision and hold up traffic.
If there is no one to inform them and in some sense reprogram this, then they will continue to do this ad nauseum.
Thus, there is no functional difference beyond your pre-loaded bias about Waymo cars and improperly trained human drivers.
Maybe we should build streets especially for them, then. Except I don't think they'll need the full width of a normal street. With their computer-driven precision they could probably get by with just a couple of narrow strips of metal.
And you could probably optimize traffic by increasing the size of the cars to include a lot more seats, or even standing room. Or even connecting multiple cars together for efficiency if there are a lot of other people who want to take the same route.
People always complain about "reinventing the wheel," but it just brings me so much joy when the discussion inevitably ends in rediscovering trains as the ideal mode of transportation.
Pretty sure some wooden planks in the middle would do wonders for stability and durability. Maybe some gravel too. Why has nobody thought of this yet??
Really traditional vampires are super OCD; one of the ways to get rid of them is to spill a big bag of eg. rice in front of them, and they'll spend so long counting every grain that they'll get caught by the rising sun. Salt ought to work as well?
One grain of salt, two grains of salt. Ah ha ha ha. Three grains of salt...
Whomst the fuck tried to use a fae as a substitute for a daemon? It's called a daemon engine not a fairy engine, there's a reason we don't use fae and it's shit like this and them just inventing new terms of service. Shoddy craft all around, whoever made this needs to return to Zharr-Naggrund and be made into an Infernal Guard.

Self-driving cars cannot navigate entire cities. No.

From what I've seen self-driving cars can navigate a 4 mile pre-learned route from the showroom to the delivery truck co.

Phoenix (and LA) are famous for basically not having weather. These things are working well in Richmond, or Boston.

Plot twist: they can't navigate entire cities. Some very well maintained streets, maybe.
