Waymo has become the second company
to apply for the newly-available permit to deploy autonomous vehicles without
safety drivers on some California Mountain
  View 
The company already
has driverless  cars in play over in Phoenix 
The recent fatal
collision of an Uber self-driving car with a pedestrian, plus another fatality
in a Tesla operating in semi-autonomous mode, make this something of an awkward
time to introduce vehicles to the road minus safety drivers. Of course, it must
be said that both of those cars had people behind the wheel at the time of
their crashes.
Assuming the permit is
granted, Waymo’s vehicles will be limited to the Mountain View 
No details yet on what
exactly the cars will be doing, or whether you’ll be able to ride in one. Be
patient.
