Waymo Removes Safety Operators, Aims for 1M Trips by 2026
Update: 2025-11-18
Description
Waymo, the self-driving car pioneer, is making waves by eliminating safety operators from its robotaxi fleet in Miami, a major step towards its 2026 commercial launch. The company is also expanding its services to Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, and Orlando. Waymos recent initiatives include paid rides on highways in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Phoenix, and partnerships in Atlanta and Austin. In contrast, Teslas robotaxi trials in Austin still require human oversight. Waymo remains confident, aiming to offer one million trips per week by 2026, with plans to launch in Detroit, Las Vegas, San Diego, Nashville, and London, and is currently testing in New York City.
