Public rides in Dallas are slated to begin next year. In the meantime, here's everywhere the self-driving service operates now, and where it's set to arrive in the future.

Alphabet Inc.’s Waymo plans to launch robotaxi service in Dallas next year in partnership with Avis Budget Group Inc., a push by the autonomous car company to diversify beyond its relationship with Uber Technologies Inc.

Waymo claims that its robotaxis are much safer than vehicles operated by humans. Based on its data, the Waymo Driver resulted in 88% fewer serious injury or worse crashes, 79% fewer crashes involving an airbag deployment, and 78% fewer crashes involving an injury of any kind.
