It's insane that they need permits for 8 cars that have humans driving them in 2025, when they're already fully automated in SF.

New York is a long way behind California in regulating autonomous vehicles. Fully driverless vehicles are also illegal there and it will require legislation for Waymo to deploy in the state.
