Google’s autonomous taxi company Waymo opened its services to all customers in the San Francisco area Tuesday as the company continues to expand and test in new areas.
The decision to open up to all customers in San Francisco follows a significant expansion for Waymo in Phoenix, Arizona, where the company recently doubled its area of operation. Waymo opened its rides to all customers in Phoenix in 2020. Waymo pushed back against claims that its robotaxis are unsafe, pointing to company data that shows its taxis are nearly four times better than human drivers at avoiding injury-causing collisions.
