Waymo eyes Raleigh, Durham for self-driving taxis after Charlotte. What to know

Waymo told a Raleigh transportation audience last week that it is in active talks with Triangle governments about bringing its autonomous taxi service to the area. The company plans to launch first in Charlotte, likely by late next year. FULL STORY: Will Waymo come to the Triangle? What a company rep said in Raleigh this week Here are key takeaways: Rich Harrington, a policy adviser for Waymo, told attendees at the N.C. Department of Transportation’s annual Transportation Summit that the company is in “active conversations” with local governments in Raleigh and the Research Triangle. He did not name which ones or give a timetable. Charlotte comes first.

Charlotte Is Weighing a Ban on Towing Cars With People Inside, but North Carolina Law Won’t Let It Touch What Towers Charge

Charlotte City Council’s Safety Committee is looking at changes to the city’s private-property towing rules, a topic it took up at its October and November meetings. Two proposals stand out: banning the towing of vehicles with people inside them, and requiring a property owner’s written authorization for every tow, at any hour. Both are reasonable. Neither touches the bill, though, because North Carolina law doesn’t let cities set tow prices.
