> "Passengers cannot select a destination outside of our approved geography, and our software will not create a route that travels outside of a geo-fenced area, which has been mapped in detail," Waymo says. The Information reported earlier this month that Waymo's cars will initially be made available in the area of Chandler, a Phoenix suburb. I saw one of their minivans a week or two ago. Chandler is mostly "new" construction - New strip malls, newish neighborhoods with nice sidewalks, etc. It's also relatively well-to-do. Average incomes are much higher than in Mesa, which is just to the north. Phoenix (other side of the Salt River) has nice areas, and it has ghettos. I wonder where the geofence's lines are drawn. Certainly they'd include ASU/Tempe... I wonder how these would work for passengers who need to get their illegal plant products, dealers of which don't always live in neighborhoods with nice sidewalks. Mostly those passengers didn't tell me what they were actually doing, but sometimes I figured it out.
