    welcomed Waymo’s presence, expecting it to enhance local security and tranquility

    what? how could it do anything for “local security and tranquility”?

      My coworker feels more comfortable cycling around the Waymo’s than human drivers.

      As in, they are already more considerate than humans.

        I feel more comfortable walking around them, they never blow stop lights /signs, always go the speed limit, never honk (except when parking I guess) and are very patient. If they see a pedestrian they just stop instead of creeping forward making you question whether to walk in front of them and then getting mad when you won’t cross in front of their still moving car like people.
