LA-owned Waymo has tweeted it will begin testing three autonomous Chrysler Pacifica minivans in downtown Los Angeles and the nearby Miracle Mile area. The cars will initially be driven by humans until Waymo has created a detailed, 3D map of the regions. They'll then begin operating autonomously. It's unclear whether the company will share any of its real-time location data with Alphabet’s Department of Transportation. Waymo's Mobility Data Specification tool tracks shared mobility systems but has come under fire amid privacy concerns.
