As a college student in Pittsburgh I'd love to try this, anyone know a sure shot way to call one of the self driving ones vs. a standard uber?

- rhololkeolke 10y agoI know someone who worked at the ATC over the summer, so I asked him. He said there is no sure fire way to get a self driving one. You basically have to get lucky with the time of day and your start and end points being within the zone they are testing. I'm pretty sure the zone is the downtown area and areas near it. But I don't have exact details.
- ChrisBland 10y agoFrom what I heard on NPR this morning, they selected a few thousand users to be in the pilot program and only those users are able to get the self driving. Im guessing they looked at their past route data and user rating to find users to include.
- patrickread 10y agoToo bad. Being in Columbus, 3 hours from Pittsburgh, I'd love to road trip there just to try a self-driving Uber. But not sure I would if you have no way of dependably hailing one.
