Uber, Waymo roll out driverless rides in Austin

 

 

(CNN)– For the first time people in Austin, Texas can now call a ride without a driver.

From the Uber app, users can book a ride in the autonomous Jaguar I-PACE, the vehicles fit up to four passengers.

Uber users can boost their chances of getting a Waymo driver-less car by adjusting their rider preferences.

There is no added cost.

If you do not want to go driver-less, you can request a different car.

Uber plans to expand the driver-less rides in other cities.

They will launch in Atlanta later this year.
