Description

Waymo, the self-driving car company, is expanding its reach across the US, starting tests in Philadelphia and collecting data in Baltimore, St. Louis, and Pittsburgh. This move follows a pattern of partnerships seen in other cities. Waymo is also offering rides on freeways in major metropolitan areas and aims to provide one million rides per week by 2026. However, the company faces challenges, including an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration into how their vehicles interact with school buses, following incidents where Waymo vehicles drove past school buses with children.
