Passengers experience riding a driverless cars for the first time
- 6 years ago
It seems like the novelty of riding in a driverless car wears off quickly, if promotional footage from Google's Waymo is to be believed.
Members of the public taking part in its Early Rider program in Arizona were recently invited to take trips in its now fully automated minivans.
After their initial excitement wears off, the video clip shows them playing with their phones, taking selfies and even falling asleep.
Waymo's first publicly available ride-hailing service is expected to be unveiled in Phoenix later this year, after the state has given the plans the go-ahead.
