Waymo Has Tens Of Thousands People On San Francisco Robotaxi Waitlist, Co-CEO Says

Waymo is among a small number of companies around the world that have billions of dollars in financing to develop self-driving cars and trucks. But progress toward wide-scale service has been slow. San Francisco, a city of nearly 900,000 people, is just the second test site for passenger service for Waymo, founded in 2009. "We are building a business. So we're really focused on how to commercialize this technology," Co-CEO Tekedra Mawakana said, adding that it is looking into how to tap the markets for ride hailing, trucking, local delivery and then eventually for personal car ownership.
