Rules of the road here
Pilot / permit-gatedThe EU set the first Level-4 type-approval rules, but a type-approved vehicle still needs each member state to authorize its operating area. Deployment is small-series only for now.
What you'd open to ride here
No single app shows all of them, so here they are side by side.
Pony.ai's first commercial robotaxi service in Europe, with Verne, launched April 2026; over 200,000 km and several thousand passenger rides since. In September 2026 it began passenger test rides with no onboard safety operator on a 22 km route linking Verne's HQ, a business district and Zagreb Airport. Coming to the Uber app under the Pony-Uber Europe plan.
Getting to and from the airport
Airports charge ride-hail a per-trip access fee, often on both the pickup and the dropoff. Robotaxis pay the same fee as Uber and Lyft, there's no separate robotaxi rate. What's different is access: each airport negotiates a phased agreement, so the cars are often sent to a set spot (a rental-car center or a train station) rather than the terminal curb.
No robotaxi serves this airport yet.
Why robotaxis wait in one spot
Robotaxis don't circle the block between rides. With no passenger, a car pulls over and waits, repositions toward where the next ride is likely, or heads back to a depot to charge and get cleaned, all at fixed addresses. So a place you keep seeing them is usually a staging or charging spot, not somewhere you can be picked up.
It isn't always quiet. In 2024, Waymos packed into a small San Francisco lot started honking at each other overnight, a collision-avoidance feature misfiring in tight quarters, until Waymo pushed a fix. In Santa Monica, nightly charging noise pushed the city to order overnight operations to stop. If a spot near you is a problem, here's what actually works.
Seen them returning to the same spot?
Tell us where, or flag a spot you'd rather they didn't use. Reports are reviewed before anything shows publicly; an address you ask them to avoid stays private.
Can you make them stop coming?
Honestly: there's no official “remove my address” button, no company promises that. But two things genuinely move the needle. Tell the operator: they do adjust pickup, dropoff and staging spots (and a properly signed no-stopping or red curb is honored automatically). And report it to your city or regulator, neighborhood pressure is what forced changes in Santa Monica.
