Waymo has officially opened its robotaxi service in Dallas to the public, removing the waitlist and allowing anyone in the city to hail a self-driving car. The Alphabet-owned company made the announcement on Tuesday, marking a major step in expanding autonomous ride-hailing across the U.S. and beyond.
This means residents and visitors can now download the Waymo app, request a ride, and get picked up by a fully autonomous vehicle – no prior sign-up or special permission needed.
Getting a ride is simple. Follow these steps:
The service is available to anyone aged 18 and older. No driver is present, but you can contact support through the app at any time.
Dallas becomes one of the first major cities where Waymo operates without a waitlist. This move signals confidence in the technology and a bigger push toward mainstream adoption.
For riders, it means easy access to self-driving cars, which can be cheaper and more convenient than traditional taxis or ride-hailing services in some cases. For the industry, it proves that autonomous vehicles are ready for real-world, commercial use.
Waymo is not stopping in Dallas. The company, owned by Alphabet (Google’s parent), has plans to scale its self-driving technology across Europe, the United Kingdom, and more U.S. cities. This Dallas launch is just the latest step in that global expansion.
Already, Waymo operates in cities like Phoenix, San Francisco, and Los Angeles. With each new city, the company learns and improves its autonomous driving system.
