Waymo is being framed as a fast-expanding autonomous driving system, with new city launches and a push toward 1 million rides a week.
- The repost cites seven new cities: San Diego, Miami, Dallas, Orlando, Vegas, Tampa, and Denver.
- It claims Waymo is heading toward 1 million rides per week.
- A cited stat says Waymo has 94% fewer serious-injury crashes than human drivers.
- The accompanying argument is that fewer crashes should mean fewer ER, ICU, and OR cases, but healthcare systems are not modeling that effect.
