24.01.2025 03:31 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0With a high degree of certainty, here's what happened:
• Car is hard coded to not enter the freeway, they're testing but not ready yet
• Car gets forcibly rerouted onto the onramp by traffic
Oh noooo the car decided to safely stop instead of potentially hurting someone.
Get over yourself dude
At least this one we know was caused by failed pullover, I'm not sure what the other ones were though

25.11.2024 19:39 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0I look at this slightly differently; I think the cyclist intended to make that right curve from the very beginning (rather than fly out into traffic) hence nothing actually happening, but Waymo's reaction was definitely...interesting

It's pretty much where they started 👍
23.11.2024 00:27 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0this is getting confusing, I thought the internal name for Pacifica was V5 😵💫

Wait what the heck
14.11.2024 23:22 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Do you honestly think that if Waymo didn't know how to stop for pedestrians they would still even exist
I encourage you to take a ride and watch the rider screen to get a feel for how insanely good the perception is
Stand in front of 10 Waymos, and if any of them even touch you I'll give you $1000
