The\u00a0company has invited the general public to apply to be part of the program, saying\u00a0\u00abWe\u2019re searching for early riders in parts of the Phoenix metropolitan area,\u00a0including Chandler, Tempe, Mesa and Gilbert. Come join us in making it safer and easier for everyone to get around!\u00bb The feel-good video below features a family that participated in small-scale tests, and Waymo said it would accept a \u00ablimited number\u00bb of additional participants in the expanded program. Alphabet CEO Larry Page has been an enthusiastic pursuer of driverless car technology since before Google, and Waymo&#8217;s goal is to launch a ride-hailing service based on its driverless\u00a0platform.\u00a0Apple, Didi, Uber, and a variety of other tech companies are all invested in a similar vision. Waymo&#8217;s testing in Arizona is a sharp reminder that\u00a0a driverless future is marching inexorably closer.
