AVs

Within Uber-Waymo split, a key labor battle over AVs is being waged in the nation's capital

Uber and Waymo, two companies that develop self‑driving cars, have ended their partnership. They now disagree on how to bring autonomous vehicles (AVs) to cities. In Washington, D.C., a labor battle is happening over the plan to deploy many AVs at once. Workers and unions worry that mass AV deployment could replace jobs.
