With over eight years of testing under its belt, Waymo is a pioneer of self-driving technology and is already testing vehicles in suburban Phoenix, Michigan, Silicon Valley and San Francisco. Another successive tweet by the company mentions that it has now successfully tested in 25 cities across the US, with over 3.5 million miles autonomously driven till date.
