    But I’ve also seen the Waymos go faster than other cars in more narrow roads since people were going slower than the speed limit.

    So, what you’re saying is Waymos either drive too slow on arterial roads or don’t drive to the conditions of residential roads. Got it!

      A speed limit is different from a speed suggestion

        Yes, but speed limits are also limits, not required exact speeds. On residential roads, people drive slower for a reason and Waymo probably should too!
