Andy, The technology is incredible but what's waymo fun is you! Your youthful zeal is contagious and truly made my day! Does this mean Bob H is out of a job?
OMG that was incredible! Great seeing your face too, Andy. Hope you're well! Talk about being a vanguard. I passed the link on to Rick Dees because I produce his Daily Show. Hope that was okay, we always look for stuff on self-driving taxis now that the FAA has cleared the way! Cheers!
WOW scary and exciting. Is this a taxi type deal where you rent it for a short trip? Can I get it in NY. I’d love to take it to Boston for the holidays. Thx for posting. Rory
Hi Karen, It sure felt that way to me. Humans can only do one thing at a time. If they are looking to the left they are unaware of what's happening on their right, or behind them. This thing is paying attention to everything around them all at the same time. They are not distracted by their phone or the radio or picking their nose. A few days ago I was stopped for a light and after it changed four cars went through making a left turn! These things don't just know the rules they obey them. That's novel!

Not until I can yell at it "PULL OVER HERE!!"
What kind of car was the Waymo? Tesla? I’d live to try one but I don’t think they are in New York yet
There appears to be a Jaguar logo on the steering wheel . . .
Yes I saw that. I thought it was a cougar? Mercury?
No, it really was a Jaguar. Pretty nice too
That car just zips along confidently. Thanks for the ride!

I am happy for you Andy. I still love driving and hope to drive myself for several more years. You looked like you had a ball
love this!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's probably not for a control-freak like me: "You should have turned at Franklin!"
Mark, I'm an old guy. I'm ready to give up a lot to get my nap every day:-)
Hi, Andy.
I'm an old guy too - That's what makes me so ornery.
I doubt that I could nap, whoever /whatever was driving. I'm only comfortable napping when I'm driving.

Wow! Thanks for sharing your experience! Looks like it was safe enough!
