Did You Hear About The Driverless Shuttles Heading To Riverside?

Apparently, this is just something we’re going to have to get used to…

Three all-electric driverless shuttles will begin operating in Riverside in January.

It’s a two-year trial run to complement its existing bus service.

First the Waymo cars and now full-blown shuttles!!??? Are we ready for this!?

They seat eight and are capable of reaching speeds of 31 mph, but will probably operate closer to 15 mph, depending on traffic and the chosen route.

It looks like you’ll mainly see them near UC Riverside, downtown and near the Riverside airport.

And apparently, they will move people around the city, at no cost to the public, emitting no emissions and improving air quality by taking cars off the road.

Would you ride one of these? And has anyone on the staff tried a driverless car yet?
