Can't connect to the Service Chromedriver error message.

When I installed selenium on my Mac and ran it on Python 3.5, I also saw the following message:

 selenium.common.exception.WebDriverException: Message: 'chromedriver' executable needs to be in PATH.Please see https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/chromedriver/home

Download the file from the URL provided, answer it and place it where PATH passes, such as ~/bin, and it worked.

In my environment, I have already installed a Chrome browser, but I think I also need it.

By the way, Google search with the error message Can not connect to the service chromedriver will give you many solutions.
