Alphabet’s Waymo, formerly known as Google’s self-driving car project, has teamed up with the National Safety Council and other renowned names in launching its “Let’s Talk Self Driving” campaign.
“There’s a lot to talk about when it comes to self-driving cars,” said Waymo CEO John Krafcik.
“As with any new technology, there’s great enthusiasm and curiosity about self-driving cars — and there’s some confusion, too.”
The campaign aims to raise awareness not only against the importance of safe driving, but also in demonstrating the numerous potential safety benefits that self-driving cars will offer.
“Automation holds incredible promise, but as our driving culture evolves, Americans will need to understand what self-driving vehicles can and cannot do,” said Deborah Hersman, CEO of the National Safety Council, speaking to CNBC.
