As an epilogue to this video... the following day we felt WAY safer as a pedestrian on a crosswalk when a Waymo was approaching. You just knew it would definitely stop. Also, when driving in our own car and a Waymo indicated left in front of us to get into our lane, we ensured we made room and let it in. I felt more attached to the 'egoless' car - in other words, it was just trying to get to where it needed to get to... and you felt that you are letting down the passengers if you don't help out. You knew it was indicating at the appropriate time to get into a particular lane and not trying to do a 'last minute' skip the line type move. When making this video, I did not anticipate how my attitude would change more positively towards other Waymos.
