We take our responsibility with any passenger _very_ seriously. We strive to be world-class in how we operate 100% of the time, and we learn everyday from the best customers we could find as to how we should handle situations like these. No

1) It's not an immediate priority for us, and not really a strength. We are partnering with an amazing company for our second generation vehicle that will go a long way towards this, though. In general, we are excited to see LIDAR sens

It depends on how fine-grained we're talking. If you rely on your map for absolute perception (every object must exist in your map in its current real-world state), then yes, you're in trouble. If you rely on the map as a basic pr

We still have Test Drivers behind the wheel as a last resort, but we regularly give passenger rides with zero or low disengagements. As a real-world example: we have a couple who uses our self-driving taxi service multiple times a day every
