Waymo and Cruise are more and more; close to offering the public public transportation and self-driving deliveries in California : the two companies, one of which is owned; of Alphabet and one of GM, have asked the local DMV for authorization to offer the aforementioned services for a fee. The documents have already been deposited; for some time: the exact dates are, respectively, January 19 and March 29, according to what the sources of Reuters report in an article this afternoon. However, there is a fundamental difference in implementation: at first, Weymo still intends to include a driver behind the wheel to supervise the work of the AI, while Cruise wants to leave immediately in mode; & quot; full auto & quot ;.
Cruise has good reason to be more sure of s & eacute ;: the documentation says that its autonomous vehicles already have; driven for 2 million miles (approximately 3.2 million km ) in the city & agrave; San Francisco, while Weymo only 83,000 (about 133,000 km), as the bulk of the tests were conducted in Phoenix, Arizona. Right over there & ugrave; Waymo is already offering an autonomous taxi service, and for quite a while of time-she had even started in December 2018.

Waymo's fleet will be & agrave; made up of the now iconic (let's say easily recognizable, at least, thanks to the showy aerodynamic appendages) Chrysler Pacifica minivan hybrids and 100% electric SUVs Jaguar I-Pace . The goal is cover the whole territory of San Francisco and the northern area of San Mateo County. Also in the early stages, Waymo could disable autonomous driving in some particular road sections, such as entry ramps and construction sites, and in case of adverse weather conditions such as heavy rain or very wet roads. Cruise, for his part, explains that he will limit himself; on certain routes and only in case of favorable weather, without explaining more & ugrave; in detail.
Both Waymo and Cruise were beaten by Nuro, who & egrave; the first company to obtain this type of authorization from the motorization; however, Nuro only deals with deliveries , not people transport. Once & quot; exceeded & quot; motorization, however, Waymo and Cruise will still have to go through the California utility commission.
