The second article I linked to also mentioned work on unmapped roads:

Waymo has solved problem after problem you think they haven't solved yet, for some reason. They've intentionally gone after unpredictable situations and dealt with them.

Look at any video where they explain how it works, and you'll notice how many situations they can manage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSX3qdy0dFg

And even if Waymo only works on well-mapped cities? That's still far from "can only work if they repurpose existing transportation infrastructure to only belong to self-driving cars" which is the comment I was replying to.
