See San Francisco from a Unique Perspective
A Waymo ride isn’t just about getting from point A to point B—it’s a whole new way to experience the city. Since there’s no driver, you’re free to focus on the view, enjoy a conversation, or relax with no distractions. It’s an opportunity to take in the city’s beautiful architecture, historic landmarks, and vibrant neighborhoods. Imagine winding through the streets of Chinatown, heading down the Embarcadero, or cruising through the Mission District in complete comfort, while the vehicle adeptly handles the driving.
Enjoy a Safe and Smooth Ride
Safety is a top priority for Waymo, whose vehicles are equipped with sensors and cameras that constantly monitor the environment, detect obstacles, and respond to traffic conditions. The cars have also been trained to navigate San Francisco’s streets—from steep hills to crowded intersections. Taking a ride in a Waymo is an incredibly safe and smooth way to travel the city – both for riders and other road users, like pedestrians and cyclists.
Connect with Public Transit
Waymo is just one way in which you can get around San Francisco more sustainably, as it also offers an ideal way to connect to other clean forms of sustainable transportation, as well. In fact, Waymo recently piloted a public transit credit program where riders received funds toward future Waymo rides when they connected to select transit stations in San Francisco.
