Uber users can sign up for London's first robotaxis ahead of launch 'in months'

Uber opened sign-ups for London's first robotaxis ahead of a regulatory green light expected in the coming months. Riders will use AI from Wayve to navigate the capital, with trained operators in the cockpit during initial launches. The service is branded Uber x Wayve aboard Ford Mustang Mach-E vehicles. Wayve executives described the test as London's first public autonomous ride, with cameras and radar collecting data processed on board. Reuters notes the cars have tested on city streets since 2018, facing busy traffic and pedestrians. Customers can choose a conventional ride instead, and the price remains unchanged.
