Waymo is really premium and more like getting an Uber Black, probably better. You get to talk shit with your friends as loud as you want, play your own music, and there's no pressure about anything. You know exactly how long it'll wait. What it feels like is those movies where the rich guy has a private driver with a privacy screen like a limo. The overall standard of the vehicles is very high, clean, and safe feeling

I mean they have cameras and mics in the car, they say they don't have the mics on unless you call support, but they are apparently recording video at all times.
