Have you had a Waymo sighting lately? It suddenly seems like these robotaxis are everywhere. Pittsburgh has been a testing ground for autonomous vehicles for a decade now, but getting them to navigate our streets has been a lot harder than many companies hoped. Host Megan is with Axios’ transportation correspondent Joann Muller to talk about the big companies that have come and gone, how she thinks about their relative safety, and what Waymo's arrival says about Pittsburgh's evolving role in the self-driving boom. Plus, what to do if you pull up next to a robotaxi. Wanna get your hands on some vintage City Cast swag? We’re clearing out our swag closet, and if you join now you’ll get a limited edition pennant, mug, or tote bag to show off your city pride! Click here to support this show and get your free gift.
