Driverless taxis are arriving in London this year, with Waymo planning to pilot-test its vehicles around the capital in April.

A minor controversy began after a Waymo robotaxi was caught blocking a bike lane, but the autonomous car company says it's actually the human driver's fault.

You might have seen one of the 24 Waymo vehicles roaming the streets of London, although they are presently still being driven by humans.

Waymo has long served Sky Harbor airport in Phoenix, and the smaller SJC airport in San Jose, but SFO is another beast.

In November, Waymo expanded its service area to stretch across more than 260 square miles of the San Francisco Bay Area, and added freeway access for passengers. Riders can now hail a driverless ride to San Jose Mineta International Airport as well as San Francisco International Airport.

US self-driving car company Waymo said Thursday it is working with UK partners to launch driverless robotaxis in London, which are expected to begin operating later this year. California-based Waymo partnered with UK-based Jaguar Land Rover in 2018 to develop a self-driving electric car.

Waymo has laid out plans for a robotaxi service in London with a pilot scheme due to begin in April.
