All Waymo cars are Jaguar iPace. Plenty of non-self driving ones in the UK. Early ones had a couple of issues (leaky windscreen and dodgy cells in some of the batteries) but broadly speaking they're reliable and well regarded cars. Quick, too - all versions of them have a standard 400hp, AWD drivetrain.
This was incredible to watch, and was SO much calmer than a taxi cab ride hubby and I took our 1st trip to San Francisco 😂 Would love to see it manage Lombard Street!
I recently rented a car that had some of the new fangled driver support features… none of which I have ever had or used. After a few day, I started playing with some of the options… Speed Control, worked as expected; Proximity Detection, kept me a safe [selectable] distance from vehicle in front of me, although had glitches where it would scare the hell out of me…approaching an intersection, with traffic slowing and following distance reduces, then vehicle in front [quickly] shifts to left turn lane, my vehicle now sees LOTS of clear space ahead and ACCELERATES towards the traffic ahead… That is stopped for the red light !!! … causes seatbelt test! The best though… is Lane Control, that I found great for long straight roads, but found out it simply turns itself OFF on somewhat curvy roads… of course it turns itself OFF right in the middle of a curve and IMMEDIATELY thinks going straight is a good way of letting you know it’s time for you to pay attention. Having that experience makes me think I might not be comfortable in a totally automatous taxi.
Hwy Casey, i've been watching you for long time but this video fascinated me. I have lived in many rural areas for the past 74 years and have never seen such a thing as self driving cars, Thanks for sharing this! Keep up the good work, variety is the spice of life, right!
Never a dull moment with Casey LaDelle! Wild stuff, thanks for bring us along. And as a fantastic father he goes in the solo flight before putting the family in harms way - well done!

Wow, this was a great video to watch. Never knew about how these cars work. Then I searched in UA-cam for these type of cars and the amount of wrecks are off the charts. Be safe
"New data shows that the Waymo Driver continues to make roads safer. Over 14.8M rider-only miles driven through the end of March, it was up to 3.5x better in avoiding crashes that cause injuries and 2x better in avoiding police-reported crashes than human drivers in SF & Phoenix." And this is the worst it will be.
You also better hope WayMo doesn’t come to where you live otherwise, Riley will have one come pick her up and take her to the “Apple juice” store without you 😂
I prefer to drive in rural and suburban areas but I can't imagine anyone preferring to drive in the city. Unless you're someone driving a Charger or something and wanting to show off, in which case, please don't.
In just a bit over 100 years auto motive technology went from vehicles that needed to be hand cranked to start to what you’ve experienced in the Big City. Understanding that getting better is the natural progression of new technologies it amuses me that the naysayers of new sustainable energy systems poo poo them for being “inefficient” as if they are never going to advance. Hey anybody know where i can find a pay phone i need to make a collect call to a party line.
I wouldn't say electric vehicles are environmentally friendly because the mining for the minerals is very destructive. And then you have the waste of the batteries. The biggest upside to EVs is carbon emissions. But in total, from mine to consumer, it is still comparable to the environmental impact as combustion engine vehicles.
@@rpmurphey1981 Self Driving Cars were in prototype phase at CES 2018. 6 years later, it's reality. I'm wondering how far off is a 'Back to the Future', Mr. Fusion power source?
My brother was driving a 2020 Toyota Ambulance, when you go close to the side the road to avoid something it will turn the steering back to the middle, also brake going from the sun into shade and shade going into the sun,😂😅,also if you get close to something, thanks for sharing, all the best to you all
Hello Casey thank you very much for doing that video it was so weird what watching you film something driving and no driver there I can't imagine how much it was weird for you. San Francisco was one of the best places you could try a vehicle like that , i would think New York would be another good place how much traffic there is in people👍👌 Ralph in the UK
Occasionally I check in on Waymo passenger videos. I live in SF, so I see them all the time, and I have the app, but I still stick to transit to save money. I might change that since they keep expanding the fleet and dropping prices though. It's in a different class from the Tesla FSD videos where they are still talking about how many times the human driver had to intervene. I feel totally confident that a Waymo will make safe moves.
That was so cool. I will have to check out one of the Waymo cars. Frankly, I trust the Waymo self-driving technology, more than most drivers in San Francisco.
I have learned something new. I almost didn't watch this video but then since you, casey, are doing the video I thought it might be interesting and clicked on it. It was very interesting and I felt the same way you did when the the truck was coming head on. I actually held my breath. Keep up the good work the good work.
I want to see a self-driving car to off-roading, rock crawling, drive in the snow, drive on a road that's not pavement or maybe even just to have fun drive on a road that's covered in water
That’s so cool. I absolutely despise driving in a downtown area: pedestrians, one way streets, impatient drivers and poorly displayed street signs or buildings. Can’t wait to try this service. I’d even like to try one out when they start offering services between cities.
My 5 year old Tesla drives itself between cities now. Anywhere in the US (and possibly Canada - haven’t tried that yet). And it can go more than 40mph. What you saw with Waymo was certainly impressive if you’re not up to date on this self-driving technology. But Tesla’s Full Self Driving is clearly the state-of-the-art to someone who is knowledgeable about self-driving cars.
@@Dave-ei7kkcan tesla drive itself tho? they don't even have a permit yet to do driverless rides. It doesn't matter if tesla can drive all over the USA it doesn't do it driverless it has a human supervising and can take over if it messes up. With waymo it does all the driving no supervision or babysitting needed. Waymo chooses to go the speed limit for passenger comfort it can drive faster just is programmed not to lol.
@@pennytrui1149 LOL for sure. Go buy yourself a Waymo and tell me how useful it is. Wait, you don’t have $120,000? They won’t sell you one? The government won’t let you buy and operate one either? Wonder why? I can drive my own Full Self Driving Tesla anywhere I want. 😉
@@Dave-ei7kk ok whatever lmfao the conversation wasn't about if i can buy a waymo. Where is anyone talking about buying a waymo? the conversation was about how good it is comparing both their driving not if i can buy one. The facts still stand tesla is behind waymo as it's not driverless lmfao.
@@pennytrui1149 Don’t both Waymo and Cruise have operations centers staffed 24/7 that can remotely control their “driverless” cars when they get into trouble. That is one of the many reasons that they can only operate in limited geographic areas that offer good remote connectivity for the drivers. In Tesla’s case they rely on the owner to supervise the driving behavior of the car so they don’t have that limitation. In reality I think both systems are supervised. But you can buy a Tesla with Full Self Driving in the $40K range and it will function even on new roads that haven’t been mapped. And as we know, roads are changing all the time. That ability to read the road without a high definition map to serve as a guide is way more sophisticated than you can imagine. My Tesla drove me 36 miles today without me having to touch the steering wheel. That included city streets, highways @ 70mph in traffic, and avoiding bicyclists, pedestrians and construction barriers in the roadways. I live in the Minneapolis, MN area, not California. Waymo was not an option. If you’re really interested in this topic and not just a troll you might want to tune into the Tesla event being held on 10/10/2024 where they will unveil more about their robotaxi deployment plans.
I hope you enjoyed your trip to San Francisco-and that you only saw the good parts. I live south of the city but have never ridden in a Waymo. Looks like you got the hang of it 😅😅
My same path a few years ago, only I had to find a near non-existent parking place at a meter.🚙 I noted the intersection then took the bus. Went to Coit tower, then Chinatown, then back towards Pier 39. Walked towards my car and couldn’t find it on those non-grid streets.😮 Walked and walked. Finally found it with only two minutes left on the meter! Being in San Francisco without a car would be so freeing.
Thanks for sharing. First time I've seen someone I recognize using a self-driving vehicle. Hope I live long enough to actually use one when I'm too old to drive myself.
Very interesting. If the self-driving cars can navigate San Francisco that’s a major feat and forward step for me to trust in its capabilities. Looks like the technology will definitely be sticking around and be common place even in my lifetime. Pretty cool!
That was really cool 😄😎! I have been to Chinatown in the 70's when I was in the Navy. If someone thinks this video was silly they don't know whats fun.😮😊
That was a fun video to watch... Thank you for edumacating us... Because of you, I know how to ride in a driverless car, but Most impressive....I know how to erect a circus tent!!! Please sneak in one of these gems now and then! I loved it!
Fleets of Waymos with drivers mapped the city for a solid year, if not more, 24 hours a day. Information on the company was pretty limited, creeped a lot of people out. There are still issues, but nowhere near as its' competitor, Cruise. They were a disaster. One drove into a very active construction zone. A lane, running the length of an entire city block, with multiple cones, barriers, electronic signs, trucks and many workers in vests, it maneuvered around all of that and drove into freshly poured concrete. Not too soon after, one hit a pedestrian and their permits were suspended.
None of that matters since both Cruise and Waymo have significantly better driving records per mile driven than human drivers. Is not even close. Also, the Cruise vehicle that hit the pedestrian wasn't being controlled autonomously. A remote human driver had taken over.
@@damonhtoo Let me preface this with I am pretty indifferent when it comes to Waymo. I personally have not seen anything egregious from their cars. Although recently there have been rumblings of Waymo playing with their reported accident numbers. And I do side eye when they 'rest' they pull minimally over to the curb on a narrow street, with all lights out at 4am. I work overnights and see their odd parking. Cruise on the other hand. You may even have an answer to this, but I have to wonder what the breakdown is of how many cars were on the streets and at what time of day and when the majority of their reported accidents occurred. Because I would see far more Cruise cars out and about at low traffic times of night than peak times during the day. Yeah, human driver errors. I'm partial to taking cabs and it is still very common to see Ubers and Lyfts going the wrong way on a oneway street.
@@marymaclaren9553 Cruise has many videos uploaded to their youtube channel of split screens showing a timelapse of them driving autonomously for 8 hours straight. One half is dash cam, the other half is what the sensors are seeing. Very similar to Waymo driving.
Well, this was interesting being driving by nobody but there is somebody that’s got to be watching. That was sort of fun, but I’m glad I did it through your video. You did really good proud of you. I’m glad you didn’t touch the wheel. I was praying don’t touch the wheel ha ha your wife, and daughter was there too Thank you for the treat. Have a super good day😊 💜🦋😃
Using a Self Driving Car on a mission in the Big City, Lots of Cameras, Sat Phone, Recon Drone, can drive anything…. Still thinking Special Forces!!!! 🤣. Great Video!!!
The steering wheel is controlled by a powerful motor and it's unlikely you would be able to move it. But if you could, the car would pull over, end your ride, and you'd likely not be allowed to ride again.
My wife and I were in the same place you were in this vid but we didn't do the driverless cab though and S.Franciso is a way different thing to us county kids ! Hope you all had fun out there
It looks fun, but also kinda scary… and infuriating when you’re waiting to exit it in a busy environment. So impressed by its progression threough areas where a lot of drivers panic etc
I got the opportunity to follow the chase scene from the movie Bullit in my 67 Fastback it took about eight hours but SF can be a fun place to visit if you have a friend that lives there.

I’m glad you didn’t touch the wheel. I was praying don’t touch the wheel ha ha your wife, and daughter was there too Thank you for the treat. Have a super good day😊 💜🦋😃
You should have yelled out the window "Help! I'm being kidnapped!!!" hahahaha You left the window open, now anyone could jump in!!!
Very interesting, Thank You!

TOTAL RECALL...

_Just Drive, Christ - drive DRIVE!_
Using a Self Driving Car on a mission in the Big City, Lots of Cameras, Sat Phone, Recon Drone, can drive anything…. Still thinking Special Forces!!!! 🤣. Great Video!!!
Special Forces ?🤔🤐👍😎🇺🇸
This is incredibly entertaining to watch 😆
Very interesting experience. Thanks😋
That was actually interesting and I will watch that again !!
Good Work!
The steering wheel is controlled by a powerful motor and it's unlikely you would be able to move it. But if you could, the car would pull over, end your ride, and you'd likely not be allowed to ride again.
That was fascinating!
Thanks Cassey.
Very interesting 😊 Cute girls Waymo picked up!❤ Used turn signals too! Thanks for sharing!
too cute, "hey waymo, find me some cute girls". Good job Casey
My wife and I were in the same place you were in this vid but we didn't do the driverless cab though and S.Franciso is a way different thing to us county kids ! Hope you all had fun out there
Wow! That's pretty crazy.
It looks fun, but also kinda scary… and infuriating when you’re waiting to exit it in a busy environment. So impressed by its progression threough areas where a lot of drivers panic etc
You should have requested the Waymo Bullitt ride! 😂
I got the opportunity to follow the chase scene from the movie Bullit in my 67 Fastback it took about eight hours but SF can be a fun place to visit if you have a friend that lives there.
welcome to our city. Cool ride...
That was fun to watch. Thanks for doing this!
Must say, this video was very interesting. I'm blown away. I'd be freaking out, not being in control
It would have been epic if you could change your name to I hate Casey, so the car greats you welcome, I hate Casey LaDelle
😂😂😂😂
That would be cool
Actualy When it creepily called him by name I thought Bruce Cook had hacked into the system .
