Waymo launches teen rides in Nashville

Waymo has officially opened its driverless ride-hailing service to teens ages 13–17 in Nashville, Tennessee.

These young riders can now request solo trips across a 50-square-mile zone within the city. To ensure safety, each teen account must be linked to a parent or guardian. The adult approves the rides and monitors trip progress through their own Waymo app. This expansion follows the company’s initial deployment in Phoenix, where autonomous transportation for youth was first introduced to provide independent travel options.

Parents receive real-time location updates throughout the entire journey, which is the same monitoring standard established during the earlier rollout in Phoenix. The service is active for all eligible users in the designated Nashville area starting today.
