What happens if one were to keep leaving doors open? I wonder if they would ban you or something.

- cosmotic 6mo agoWonder no more. They order doordashers to close the door. https://www.cnbc.com/2026/02/12/waymo-is-paying-doordash-gig-workers-to-close-its-robotaxi-doors.html https://www.cnbc.com/2026/02/12/waymo-is-paying-doordash-gig...
- ranger_danger 6mo agoInteresting... I wonder if getting paid for closing the door still requires you to be active enough on the platform... otherwise I imagine you'd have people signing up for DoorDash just to stand in front of popular places and "hold the door open" for people... $10-20 a pop sounds like a good hustle.
- lokar 6mo agoAs a passenger, they probably silently black-list you if you do it to much
- Buildstarted 6mo agoI think the implication was that people stand around places where waymo goes often and just hold doors open for arriving waymo's to be "helpful". When the passenger leaves they just leave the door open for their doordash friends who are nearby
- userbinator 6mo agoThey would probably start to consider installing automatic doors if enough people do it.
