Is this the first time Waymo is doing winter / snow testing at scale?

I think some of the Pittsburgh-based self-driving firms may have tried this, but unaware how far they got.

We'll see what happens when there is snow in the forecast. They might just call them all back for the storm.

  • Yea, that's what I figured, but I also wonder how well anyone is driving in the slush and if the LIDAR / cameras are that disrupted by snow / ice / salt.
