Waymo will launch in San Antonio sometime next year. This is as much as we know. They didn\u2019t say if Waymo will fly solo or partner with Lyft and Uber as they\u2019re doing in other cities. Given what I\u2019ve heard I hope that we\u2019ll be able to access Waymo via its own app instead of via Lyft and Uber. I\u2019ve heard that the Lyft and Uber Apps lack features of the Waymo App that make using their service much easier for blind passengers. Perhaps we\u2019ll get more details closer to the actual launch.<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><u></u> <u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"> Sarah Forgani one of our KENS 5 news reporters explained Waymo\u2019s procedure for rolling its service out in new locations. They\u2019ll first send in a fleet of vehicles manned by Waymo Employees to \u201cMap\u201d the city so the Waymo Driver knows how to navigate our streets and highways. Once they\u2019re certain that the Waymo Driver can safely drive vehicles through our city the service will go live for the public. When Waymo goes live Mary and I want to be among the first passengers they transport. I even had a special t-shirt made for the occasion and will wear it on the day we take our first autonomous ride in a Waymo Vehicle with other ARS services to follow. It will be a dream come true one I had since I was a child. What happened to me during my first 3 years in Texas spurs on my willingness to advocate for improved public transportation including the use of autonomous rideshare services. Happy Thanksgiving everyone.<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><u></u> <u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">Peter Donahue<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><u></u> <u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p></div></div></div>_______________________________________________<br>
