Glonghui, February 19th|New York State Governor Hochul has withdrawn a proposal that would have allowed commercial autonomous taxi services outside of New York City, dealing a blow to Alphabet (GOOG.US) subsidiary Waymo, which is seeking to aggressively expand its autonomous fleet this year. The proposal, introduced by Governor Hochul in a policy preview report last month, would have allowed autonomous vehicle companies like Waymo to apply for permits to pilot driverless services. The governor’s office has confirmed the decision to withdraw the plan. Waymo stated: “While we are disappointed by the governor’s decision, we remain committed to bringing our services to New York and will work with the state legislature to advance this issue.”
