Hmm... dunno what the Waymos will be doing up here, Uber drivers hardly have any business here.

Maybe interesting to fetch a Waymo to the most inconvenient places and most complex roads in this county. 🤔

Here's a "two lane road" which is really a one lane road in width next to a sheer cliff with thousands of feet of dropoff with no guard rails. Those two lanes together (per Google Maps) are 15 feet wide... maybe less because there's a rock outcropping there on the left that will bust your coming from the other side. . I've had nightmares about that road, and I try not to go that way. There used to be about 7-8 vehicles off the side there... might still be there and now covered with bushes. Unclear if the cars were ditched or people rolled of and died.

Or there's the parking lot at Mount Wilson. I once got stranded up here because there is so much RF my car would allow my engine to start. I had to put it in neutral and roll out of RF range. I wonder if every TV and radio station being blasted into a Waymo would do anything?
