Sadly, I come only with problems and not solutions. I take it as axiomatic that beta-testing with peoples' lives that didn't agree to do so is unacceptable. That closes off a lot of the solution space that you're proposing. That sucks and you're free to disagree but again I take it ethically unassailable.
Teleportation would also be a societal game changer but if the only way there is to beta test it on unwilling participants I'd also believe that, well, we just don't get teleportation then.
It's up to Waymo to figure out how to get there, not to me. I do not take it as axiomatic that just because it'd be useful that the ends justify the means. And it certainly isn't up to Waymo whether you or I can be sacrificed.
