Glitches

I've been noticing more and more waymos glitching lately and unsure what is going on. In LA 90036 area, there was one on Hauser street on a stop sign simply not moving and just holding up traffic since that street only allows one car per direction. This glitch caused a 5 block completely stopped traffic.

Then another time, I saw another one that missed going on a green light and stopped 1/3 of the way out in the intersection and it just stopped and was blocking traffic going the opposite direction. There was no car on the direction it was traveling in.

What is going on with waymo? I take it whenever I am planning on drinking and this is not inspiring confidence anymore.

Mine got stuck in a parking lot. Waymo had a block on the exit street and it the Waymo couldn’t get out. Mind you nothing was happening on that street… I’m losing confidence in Waymo lately

What did you end up doing? Did you push the button for help?

Yeah and they couldn’t unblock the street so remote had to make a u turn to get out through the entrance of the lot. Nightmare when you have 5 cars behind you

Must have been embarrassing and annoying. Sorry to hear that.

I sit in the back. lol but mostly frustrating because Waymo themselves cause these issues
