Google self-driving car unit becomes independant company

Google’s self-driving car unit is now a separated entity and an independant company called Waymo under the Alphabet umbrella. The Waymo team conducted the first fully driverless ride on public roads in Austin last year. The car neither had steering wheels nor pedals. The team has accomplished a lot in all that time spent driving and testing. Still, there is a lot to work on, including building out better maps, making rides smoother overall, and improving navigation in inclement weather like heavy rain and snow.
