UWaymo ubelokhu ehlola eNashville izinyanga ezimbalwa. Ngokohlelo lwayo olumenyezelwe, inkampani izosebenzisana neplathifomu ye-Lyft ukuze yethule ngokusemthethweni isevisi yezohwebo phakathi nonyaka. Ekuqaleni, abasebenzisi bazokwazi ukuhalalisela ukugibela ngohlelo lokusebenza oluzinikele lwe-Waymo; njengoba isevisi ikhula, izotholakala futhi endaweni yesikhulumi seLyft. Ngaphansi kwalokhu kubambisana, I-Lyft izophatha imisebenzi engemuva—okuhlanganisa nokuphathwa kwemikhumbi, ukulungiswa kwemoto, ingqalasizinda yokushaja, kanye nokusebenza kwedepho—ngenkampani engaphansi kwayo i-Flexdrive, kuyilapho i-Waymo igxile kubuchwepheshe bayo bokushayela okuzihambelayo.
I-Waymo isheshise ukunwetshwa komkhakha wayo wezohwebo eminyakeni yamuva nje. Okwamanje, inkampani isebenza ngezinsizakalo zokuhweba e-Atlanta, Austin, e-Los Angeles, Miami, endaweni yaseSan Francisco Bay, kanye nePhoenix, futhi uye wafaka izimoto zokuhlola ezingenamshayeli kwamanye amadolobha amaningana, kuhlanganise neDallas, Houston, USanta Anthony, kanye ne-Orlando.
Isu layo lokungena ezimakethe ezintsha liyavumelana kakhulu: kuqala, inombolo encane yezimoto ezinabashayeli bezokuphepha zisetshenziselwa ukushayela ngezandla ukuze zenze amamephu anencazelo ephezulu; lokhu kulandelwa wukuhlolwa kokuzimela ngaphansi kokuqondisa kwabashayeli bezokuphepha; isigaba sokugcina sibandakanya ukuhlola okungenamshayeli ngokugcwele, ngokuvamile inikezwa abasebenzi ekuqaleni, ngaphambi kokwethulwa okuphelele kwezentengiso. INashville njengamanje ikulesi sigaba sokugcina sokuhlola esibucayi, okubonisa ukuthi uguquko olusha lokuhamba kwabantu emadolobheni luseduze.
Kusho uRoger Luo:Ukuhlolwa kuka-Waymo okungenamshayeli ngokuphelele eNashville kuphawula isinyathelo esibalulekile sokuthengisa. Ukusebenzisana kwayo neLyft (ubuchwepheshe + imisebenzi) ingasheshisa ukuthunyelwa, kodwa ukwethembeka kwesikhathi eside kanye nokuzivumelanisa nezimo zokulawula kuhlala kuyizinselelo ezibalulekile zempumelelo.
