(A post from our neighbor on Sailfish, Walt Heinzer)
Driving through Foster City, we keep seeing camera vehicles that look like street mapping that Google deploys.
I was certainly surprised when I searched further and found out that they are Amazon’s self-driving transport vehicles. ZOOX is headquartered in FC.
The test vehicles are very dark.
The actual transport cars look like an amusement park ride vehicle.
The transport vehicle driving habits are somewhat odd.
They tend to very slowly start up from traffic lights, then once at speed very abruptly change from acceleration to constant speed (Digital change)
All the test vehicles have passengers, but I did not realize that there was no driver? Not really sure.
