If you hail a cab north of Atlanta, don’t be surprised if there’s potentially no one in the driver’s seat. As we previously reported, driverless taxis have arrived in metro Atlanta.
May Mobility, a leading autonomous vehicle technology company, has launched its first commercial driverless transportation service in Peachtree Corners, Georgia, just outside Atlanta.
This marks the company’s third driverless deployment in the United States, following successful trials in Sun City, Arizona, and Ann Arbor, Michigan.
May Mobility Driverless Rides Launch In Peachtree Corners
In partnership with Curiosity Lab, T-Mobile, and the City of Peachtree Corners, May Mobility has transitioned its service to fully driverless operations, providing public rides in its autonomous Toyota Sienna Autono-MaaS vehicles.
The service operates Monday through Friday from 9:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., offering on-demand rides along Technology Parkway. Passengers can book trips through the May Mobility app, available on the App Store and Google Play.
Edwin Olson, CEO and founder of May Mobility, expressed enthusiasm about the launch, stating, “Peachtree Corners will be our third driverless operation, and we are excited to debut our first publicly available driverless service in the City of Peachtree Corners.”
He emphasized the importance of collaborating with cities and communities to address real transportation challenges.
Final Word
Looking ahead, May Mobility is working with the City of Peachtree Corners on future expansions and plans to introduce autonomous vehicles in metro Atlanta in partnership with Lyft later this year. Additional driverless operations in the U.S. are expected to be announced throughout 2025.
Atlanta is having a restaurant renaissance. Hot chicken is the rage in Atlanta’s dining scene right now. But so are chicken and waffles.
Fast-casual is also the dining trend du jour around metro Atlanta restaurants. The concept involves mixing the quick accessibility of fast food with the casual dining experience. Food in Atlanta is also adapting to the various tastes of the migrants that come here to live.
