Waymo tests self-driving cars in Chicago and Charlotte

Waymo is testing its autonomous vehicles in Chicago and Charlotte, potentially paving the way for future robotaxi services in these cities. The company is conducting test drives with human drivers to gather data on local road conditions and traffic patterns before deploying fully driverless operations. This expansion follows Waymo's recent $16 billion funding round and ongoing rollouts in other cities like Nashville, Los Angeles, and Phoenix.
