Man I love Waymo everytime I'm in SF. Truly feel like I'm living in the future when I sit in one

Biggest thing I'm excited for is knowing what the cost will be ahead of time

Which Uber used to provide... Until they were infected with tipping. Hell, I will gladly pay more than I would've spent on a tip (20%) just to avoid the hassle.

I and most of my friends stopped tipping Ubers in New York after ride-share drivers won hourly wage minimums.
