Keep Georgia’s Streets Human—Stop Driverless Cars in Atlanta and Beyond

Governor Brian Kemp, Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens, Georgia Department of Transportation, Georgia State Legislature, and Atlanta City Council

Atlanta is a vibrant, fast-growing city where streets are shared by parents bringing kids to school, MARTA riders heading to work, cyclists, delivery drivers, seniors, and people with disabilities moving through their communities. But now, a growing fleet of driverless cars is in operation— AND IT MUST BE STOPPED.

Uber has begun operating autonomous vehicles on the streets of Atlanta through Waymo—Google’s self-driving car company. These vehicles have no human drivers and no regard for the real-time decisions required in a busy urban environment. In San Francisco, Waymo now makes up 25% of a rideshare trip in the metro area. We don’t want Georgia rideshare drivers to lose their income overnight.

We want safe streets, real jobs, and investment in public infrastructure—not a future dominated by machines.

We demand:

☑️ An immediate halt to all autonomous vehicle operations in Atlanta.

☑️ A statewide ban on driverless vehicles operating or doing business in Georgia.

☑️ Investment in public transit, infrastructure, and job protections—not automation that threatens the lives of working people.

Sign the petition now. Tell our leaders: Keep Georgia safe. Keep our streets human. Say NO to driverless cars.

From: [Your Name]

We, the undersigned, are Georgia residents, workers, families, and community members calling on you to take urgent action to stop the unchecked spread of driverless cars on our roads.

Autonomous vehicles are no longer just in the testing phase—they are already operating in Atlanta. Companies like Uber and Waymo are now offering fully driverless rides to passengers in our city, with no human behind the wheel. This rollout is happening with little public input, oversight, or accountability, and it threatens both public safety and the livelihoods of working Georgians.

Our roads are shared by children walking to school, people with disabilities, transit riders, cyclists, delivery drivers, and seniors. These vehicles are not equipped to safely navigate the complex and dynamic conditions of a city like Atlanta. In other cities where these vehicles operate, they’ve blocked emergency vehicles, caused traffic jams, confused pedestrians, and been involved in collisions.

We are alarmed by the speed at which these vehicles are being deployed—without any meaningful regulation or guarantees that they will protect human life, jobs, or the public good.

To save our communities and keep our state safe, we need:

1. An immediate halt to the operation of fully autonomous vehicles on public roads across Georgia.

2. A ban on the use of autonomous vehicles for commercial purposes—including rideshare and delivery services—anywhere in the state.

3. A full prioritization of public investment in safe infrastructure, public transit, and protections for the human workers who keep Georgia moving.

Georgia must act now to protect lives, good jobs, and the future of our communities. Our streets should serve people—not machines and profit-driven tech corporations.

Thank you.
