I love taking Waymo but you have to compare the travel times.

Sometimes it will be like 45 minutes to go somewhere 15 min away because it won’t take any highways.

they still can't do highways???? this thread and people I've talked to who were big fan boys did not bother to mention that and made it sound like the driving problem was essentially fully solved

now I better understand how the operators keep up with giving the cars directions from the command center, because they are semi-autonomous R/C cars that simply don't go fast enough that their handlers get overwhelmed directing a couple of them.
