Ride-hailing company Uber is slamming the British Columbia government's decision to impose minimum wages and basic labour protections for gig workers, saying the province is set to drive up costs for residents and drive down demand for local businesses.
Waymo is currently operating in Phoenix, SF, LA, and is adding Austin in a few months.
Three of those cities are in the top 5 US cities by population, with only New York and Chicago missing.
New York only just announced 2 months ago a permitting process to allow these companies to start trials there. Illinois banned autonomous cars in 2017.
They don’t need to be 100% autonomous to be a good idea or a good deal.
