Halfway between Waze and Waymo, I guess.
It's interesting to see the ""legacy"" car makers finally deciding to go for this. ADAS now being mandatory pushes everyone towards gradually enhancing it until the point of true (no human monitoring) self driving arrives.

  I mean legacy auto-makers are just hedging whilst also acquiring information about operations that they can then leverage. They were already caught asleep at the wheel when Tesla came onto the scene.

They (along with Waymo) plan to launch services in London this year - it will be very interesting how they cope with the often complex non grid roads, huge number of pedestrians, buses and cyclists, not to mention the militant black cab drivers.

  I don't see self-driving cars ever working in the UK.
  It's hard enough for a human driver to negotiate their way through for example York, never mind a computer that can only react painfully slowly to outside influences.
  I fully expect to see a lot of written-off self-driving cars scattered along the A82 through Glencoe, Cluanie, and Inverinate, as they entirely fail to cope with deer, sheep, and feral goats.
