Starting today, Waymo has opened its fully autonomous ride-hailing service to all riders in Dallas, eliminating the waitlist that had been in place since the North Texas launch earlier this year.
Expansion Details
The expansion also opens the service to visitors traveling to Dallas, though airport trips are not yet available. Waymo said it is continuing to test fully autonomous operations at Dallas Love Field and expects to begin serving airport travelers in the future.
Chris Justl, CEO of Epilepsy Foundation Texas, said autonomous vehicles provide greater independence for people whose medical conditions limit their ability to drive. “Waymo autonomous vehicles are not just the future, they’re a transformational step forward for the epilepsy community and anyone living with medical conditions that limit their ability to drive, creating a new pathway to safe, independent travel,” Justl said in a statement.
