Interesting. I see many driverless Waymos on the streets everyday in Los Angeles. I saw one on the freeway for the first time a few days ago. I haven't tried one yet.

There must be zero tolerance for violence — of any kind — against the brave men and women in uniform who selflessly serve our communities and our country. The shooting of National Guard members in Washington, D.C. is horrific and unacceptable.
