Across Nashville Neighborhoods, Parked Waymos Are Recording You

Parked Waymo driverless vehicles in Nashville neighborhoods are continuously recording 360-degree video and audio to maintain situational awareness. While a company spokesperson stated the recording is necessary for safety, the company provided minimal details on how long the idly collected data is stored or how it is used. The vehicles use radar and LiDAR sensors combined with external cameras to operate and train their automated driving system.
