Waymo Drives Through Middle of Police Standoff

If driverless cars are the future, we might see way more of this … a Waymo took a left turn smack dab into the middle of a police standoff … and it’s all on video.

Viral video spreading on social media shows one of the driverless ride service vehicles taking a left turn in downtown Los Angeles … cruising right into the middle of some crossfire.

Problem is … the Waymo goes right past a man who is on the ground face down next to a truck … as LAPD cars and officers line up behind him and shout commands.

Adding dramatic effect … a LAPD helicopter is heard circling overhead … and folks taking the video chuckle at the bumbling Waymo driving into the eye of the storm.

Waymo’s rollout in Los Angeles hasn’t been without some speed bumps … a car got pulled over in Beverly Hills for an illegal turn and Waymo suspended service this summer when cars were torched amid protests over immigration raids.
