   How would that work? Requiring a live human in the car would basically put   
   Waymo out of business. The whole point is that these are driverless,   
   autonomous cars. Sure, when they're delivering someone to their destination,   
   there will be a human inside, but after drop-off and before it picks up the   
   next passenger it will be empty. How does it get to the next rider if it can't   
   drive without a human inside?
