Alphabet's Waymo is reportedly considering ending its robotaxi partnership with Uber amid disagreements over service quality, safety, and regulatory compliance.
Waymo plans to launch independently in Austin and Atlanta in January 2028, with Uber's platform access to Waymo's service potentially being cut off at that point.
The possible split highlights deepening tensions between robotaxi operators and ride-hailing platforms over operating standards, safety accountability, and regulatory compliance as autonomous vehicles scale toward commercial deployment.
