The future of transportation is suddenly now in San Francisco with self-driving cars. Sleek, autonomous vehicles are traveling through city streets.

The future of urban transportation is here, and it's taking the form of sleek, autonomous vehicles traveling through city streets. Across the United States, self-driving car companies are racing to revolutionize how we move, promising safer roads, reduced traffic and a new era of mobility. But it's in San Francisco that this future is suddenly now a reality for thousands. Waymo, the Google-owned autonomous vehicle pioneer, is available to everyone in the city by the bay.

Kurt's key takeaways On one hand, the idea of hopping into a car without a driver could mean safer roads, less traffic and more accessibility for those who can't drive. But, on the other hand, are we ready to trust our lives to algorithms and sensors? The NHTSA investigation shows there are still kinks to work out. And let's not forget the potential impact on jobs in the transportation sector.

Would you take a spin in a Waymo, or are you sticking to human-driven rides for now?
