Waymo seems to be scaling their fleet surprisingly quickly. I'll be curious to see if they can also scale the number of cities they operate in at a rapid pace.

In a recent interview, they said it'll be one city at a time due to mapping constraints. Also they're looking to lower costs while maintaining safety.

This is how the switch will happen. These guys will quietly rack up a decade or more of activity with shockingly low records of accidents or injuries. It won’t take long for insurance to catch on.
