Ensuring passenger safety is a key point in operating a robotaxi. This is why every vehicle is checked over thoroughly - inside and out -- everyday. Chapter 5 of DriverlessEd explains how a robotaxi is prepared for a day of passenger service.

Liliana Salinas, Senior Systems Engineer, talks about what she loves about working on autonomous vehicle technology, her passion for CrossFit, and her dog, a Shiba Inu named Kira. She also shares what Women's History Month means to her.

The survey shows that there is significant interest in driverless ride-hail services based on a number of factors including safety, customization, and comfort.

Motional's all-electric IONIQ 5 robotaxis are now available to Uber riders in Las Vegas. This is the first time Uber riders are able to take an autonomous ride. 

The service will be the first time Lyft riders in Los Angeles can request an autonomous vehicle. Los Angeles is the second city in Motional and Lyft’s commercial partnership.

Motional has chosen Los Angeles as the second market for our robotaxi service. Akshay Jaising, our VP of Commercialization, explains why.  

For the first time ever, a robotaxi will be on display at the LA Auto Show. Visit Motional's exhibit in the South Hall Atrium. 

Motional and Uber announce 10-year commercial agreement to deploy Motional's driverless robotaxis in cities across the U.S.

Motional is making its Autonomous Vehicle Cybersecurity Development Lifecycle (AVCDL) publicly available for others to review and adopt, in order to help the industry secure against cybersecurity threats. 

AVs are programmed to follow driving rules and won't double-park or block driveways. Cities could help robotaxis thrive by designating curbside spaces for passenger and package pickups and dropoffs. 

Motional’s Red Team uses hacker-like tactics to perform penetration testing, evaluating vehicle hardware and software, and overall interconnected ecosystem.

Motional teamed up with BU researchers to test a wearable navigational assistance device that can help improve accessibility for blind ride-hail passengers.

Motional's CEO explains how the company will use its resources to create positive change across a wide variety of causes impacting road safety in urban areas.

Chapter 4 of Motional's DriverlessEd series details the behind-the-scenes work that takes place before robotaxis can start picking up passengers,  including creating high-detail street maps, building a garage, and completing test drives.
