But are they not continuously updating the road database with their fleet?

For common routes, yes. For getting to John's house, where the path there sometimes floods, no.

  • So the first waymo to get to this less used road to john’s will not have the data rather than every waymo that travels down a new highway, that then becomes a problem if it rains.

    One car with an issue of first coincides with rain on a less used road?

    • Well, it's closer to: any car with stale data and sufficient water depth is a financial and PR disaster. These cars are not cheap, and a tiktok of someone being driven into the water is even more expensive!
