If these vehicles tackle the roads of Boston, there will be no stopping this company. That place has one of the most confusing road networks I’ve ever seen in addition to some of the most confused drivers.

NYC is another obvious challenge but Boston seems like a challenging middle ground.

The issue is not a confusing road network, it's that Waymos require a modicum of grace in other drivers to operate. They aren't super aggressive, they'll defer to pedestrians and other drivers, they drive safely.

That I think is where they'll find problems when expanding to locales with less than conscientious drivers.

Boston resident here seconding this.

I am not artificially intelligent and Boston’s streets are a fuckshow.
