Airports are messy, and robotaxis don’t do well with messy.
Last year, the company launched its Trusted Tester program, which is basically a rebranding of the Early Rider program it ran in suburban Phoenix. Customers interested in using Waymo’s robotaxis join a wait list and, once approved, sign nondisclosure agreements to get access to the company’s early technology and new service areas.
Eventually, the company opens up those vehicles and service areas to regular paying customers who aren’t barred by NDAs from sharing about their trips. Some of those trips will take place in Waymo’s fully autonomous “rider only” vehicles, though a spokesperson wouldn’t say when. Airport trips can be notoriously messy for human-operated vehicles, so Waymo will certainly have work to do before introducing its Level 4 autonomous vehicles to the mix.
