And now we are moving the chromedriver to the right system folder:

Code
                    sudo mv chromedriver /usr/local/bin/
                

We are giving the right permissions to the executable:

Code
                    chmod +x /usr/local/bin/chromedriver 
                

 Because macOS still prevents it from running, we can manually run this command to allow it:

Code
                    xattr -d com.apple.quarantine /usr/local/bin/chromedriver
