Waymo commenced road trips to Philadelphia and New York City to evaluate potential for autonomous vehicle deployment. These trips primarily involve mapping urban areas using a human-driven fleet equipped with Waymo’s technology. The company will assess complex urban environments, including downtown areas and highways in both cities. While these road trips have previously led to launches of commercial services, such as in Los Angeles, no new commercial rollout has been announced for the Northeast yet. Waymo is actively collecting data to enhance its autonomous driving capabilities in preparation for future launches.
