Waymo says it's bringing its fully driverless robotaxis to Miami. But are they safe?

Waymo, owned by Alphabet, plans to re-launch its driverless robotaxi services in Miami by 2025 with the aim of launching a fully operational ride-hailing service by 2026.

The company is currently under scrutiny due to an ongoing federal investigation related to safety concerns from incidents involving its autonomous vehicles in other operational cities.

Waymo's expansion in Miami makes it the fifth U.S. city to have its service, joining major cities like San Francisco and Los Angeles where it operates 150,000 weekly trips.

The robotaxis are summoned via an app, similar to rideshare services like Uber and Lyft, but with the distinction that there is no human driver present.
