Waymo announced that its self-driving fleet has completed a total of 96 million rider-only miles without human intervention as of June 2025.
The mileage was recorded across four major U.S. cities: Los Angeles (16.46 million miles), San Francisco (29.88 million miles), Phoenix (46.39 million miles), and Austin (3.22 million miles). Waymo also clocked the highest number of autonomous miles driven in Phoenix, Arizona, with 46.39 million miles.
The company highlighted the safety performance of its fleet, noting that its self-driving cabs experienced 91% fewer serious injuries and 79% fewer airbag deployments compared to human drivers in the cities where it operates.
Waymo continues to benchmark the Waymo Driver against human drivers to measure safety and performance, maintaining a focus on minimizing collisions and improving operational efficiency.
Coinciding with the safety report, Waymo announced that it had received a pilot permit to begin testing autonomous operations at San Francisco International Airport. Initially, the service will be offered only to employees, before expanding to regular riders in the San Francisco Bay Area. The announcement follows recent testing at San Jose Airport. In addition, Waymo revealed plans to begin testing autonomous cabs in New York City.
