The expansion covers Los Angeles, Nashville, Orlando, San Diego, and the San Francisco Bay Area, representing significant geographic growth for Waymo's fully autonomous taxi operations. The new coverage area is comparable in size to Tesla's Houston robotaxi geofence and is being added to cities where Waymo already operates without a safety driver. This demonstrates continued scaling of commercial autonomous vehicle services.
