Waymo Tests the Snow and Ice in Michigan

CNBC

Waymo, also known as the Google self-driving car project, will start testing its self-driving cars in Michigan.

“For human drivers, the mix of winter conditions can affect how well you can see, and the way your vehicle handles the road. The same is true for self-driving cars,” President and CEO John Krafcik said. “This type of testing will give us the opportunity to assess the way our sensors perform in wet, cold conditions.”

Testing of Waymo’s fleet in Michigan means it will be close to the self-driving technology development center as well as some of the Michigan autoworkers working on self-driving cars.
