Waymo has restarted its robotaxi service in San Antonio five months after several vehicles were swept away during flash floods in April. The company paused operations in May and has since updated its software to better detect and avoid standing water. Service now covers a 60-mile area including downtown and the airport across 15 U.S. cities.
Background
Waymo, Alphabet's self-driving car division, has been expanding its robotaxi network across the U.S. while facing scrutiny over safety incidents involving adverse weather conditions.
