No driver? No problem. Robotaxis eye San Francisco expansion,Two trailblazing ride-hailing services are heading toward uncharted territory as they seek regulatory approval to transport passengers around the clock throughout one of the most densely populated U.S. cities in vehicles that will have no one sitting in the driver’s seat.

Cruise already has been charging people for driverless rides in less congested parts of San Francisco during night-time hours since last June.
