I was a passenger in a Waymo autonomous vehicle in Orlando, Florida, on June 19, 2026, when a potentially dangerous traffic situation occurred. The vehicle was traveling on a roadway with a speed limit of approximately 45 mph when it suddenly decelerated and continued driving at approximately 10 mph. Other vehicles on the road were traveling at normal traffic speeds, creating a significant speed differential. I was concerned that a vehicle approaching from behind could have rear-ended the Waymo vehicle due to the unexpected and substantial reduction in speed. The vehicle remained at approximately 10 mph for a period of time while surrounding traffic was moving significantly faster. There were no warning messages, alarms, or explanations provided to me before the deceleration. …
On October 7, 2026, I experienced a serious safety issue as a passenger in a Waymo autonomous vehicle. The ride began at approximately 8:16 AM and was estimated to take 13 minutes. Instead, it lasted about 41 minutes because the vehicle repeatedly failed to reach the intended destination, rerouted itself, and circled the surrounding area multiple times. I contacted Waymo Rider Support several times because the vehicle was not reaching the correct drop-off location. Support attempted to assist with navigation, but the problem continued. The most serious issue occurred when I repeatedly requested that the vehicle stop so I could exit. I told Rider Support that I wanted to end the ride and get out. After support attempted to verbally navigate the vehicle, I again requested that it stop at a safe location so I could exit and walk the remaining distance. …
The contact called about failures with 2024 Jaguar I-Pace vehicles. The contact stated that on four separate occasion had experienced failures with Waymo powered Jaguar vehicles. The contact stated that while exiting a one-way circle, a Waymo vehicle started driving towards her vehicle in the wrong direction. The Waymo vehicle eventually stopped right before crashing into the bumper of the contact's vehicle. The contact then stated that the Waymo reversed independently and parked in the corner of the circle. The contact stated that in another incident, a Waymo vehicle failed to stop at a 4-way intersection and drove through stop sign. In addition, the contact stated that while driving in her lane at a slow speed, a Waymo vehicle entered the contact's lane and cut the contact off. …
At 11:45 AM, a Waymo AV stopped in the middle northbound lane at the Kierland Commons/Scottsdale Quarter signaled pedestrian crosswalk. The stop signal was not on. Pedestrians were standing on the sidewalk waiting for the signal to turn so they could cross Scottsdale Road. I assume the Waymo AV saw the pedestrians standing on the sidewalk and decided to stop. I was directly behind the Waymo AV. Traffic was passing us in both lanes. The Waymo AV remained stopped until the pedestrian signal came on and did not move forward until after the signal turned off. Fortunately, vehicles behind me were paying attention and did not rear-end anybody. …
A waymo put pedestrian and public safety at risk on 5/12/26 at approximately 7:50 pm when it stopped halfway through an intersection at 14th, Market, and Church Street in San Francisco alongside a crosswalk. I began honking from my vehicle as the waymo stopped in front of lanes of oncoming traffic, blocking the intersection. Instead of continuing through the intersection, the waymo turned towards oncoming traffic and advanced forward into the crosswalk and into oncoming traffic that was stopped at the red light. As one of the vehicles it was advancing towards I laid on my horn to try to get it to stop, but it didn't and the car next to me had to back up away from it to avoid collision. The waymo stopped about 1 foot away from the car before reversing into the intersection again (see pictures) and then turning onto 14th andriving away. …
The contact witnessed a near-crash involving a 2024 Jaguar I-PACE Waymo Autonomous Vehicle. The contact was positioned approximately 5 feet away from the vehicle at an intersection. The contact observed a father and daughter walking across the crosswalk when the daughter fell to the ground. The Waymo vehicle started approaching the fallen child, and the father threw a stroller in front of the vehicle. Simultaneously, the contact positioned herself against the side of the vehicle, prompting the autonomous system to come to a stop and preventing the child from being struck. Once the pedestrians had cleared the crosswalk, the Waymo vehicle abruptly accelerated and sped away from the scene. The contact was document the license plate information. The contact stated the information was reported to the local news authority; however, the news authority was providing incorrect information.
We told a driver with Waymo months ago when he was mapping the pickup route for the Waymos NOT to have them come in our very busy driveway. He did not do as we requested and from that point on they have been coming into our driveway which is private property. If you could please advise them not to enter our driveway that would be great. I have witnessed them beep their horns repeatedly when there's traffic in the driveway which disturbs our guests and they've also backed out of the entrance of our driveway on several occasions which is very dangerous. They used to pickup on the street which was working out just fine before they started coming into our private property and we would like them to go back to picking them up there please! Thank you!
Alma St in Palo Alto is a five lane thoroughfare with two through lanes in each direction and a shared center turn lane. At 14:58:48 on July 25, 2026, I observed a Waymo Jaguar SUV make an illegal left turn from the left through lane of SB Alma St causing two vehicles behind it to brake. It should have first moved into the center turn lane before reaching the intersection and making the turn. There was no conflicting traffic or anything else blocking its access to the turn lane. I have dashcam video of the incident. Links are on the uploaded screenshots. I do not know the license plate number of the Jaguar that made this illegal turn. The license number on this report is for a Waymo Jaguar, but may not be the one I saw on 7/25/26.
It almost drove into a semi truck with trailer making a turn. It then stopped despite multiple cars behind it and obviously having a green light. It was also near an intersection and if things were busy this might have caused an accident. It was the smart and calm defensive driving of multiple people and the truck driver that prevented an accident. It shouldn't have to require that and my city streets shouldn't be used as an experiment using vehicles that could be deadly. NHTSA should not wait for a great tragedy and loss of life to take action on these vehicles with nobody inside them. I have the video of it stopping for no reason but only after the incident began.
SAFETY INCIDENTS 1. Highway Limp Mode Failure - May 2026 & June 2026 While driving on the highway in summer conditions with my infant in the vehicle, the car has entered limp mode twice without warning, reducing speed to a maximum of 2mph. This left us stranded in live traffic lanes, creating immediate and serious danger to my child's life. 2. Severe Range Loss in Winter Storm - December 2025 While driving in an ice storm with my infant in the vehicle, I briefly stopped to purchase windshield de-icer. Upon restarting the vehicle, the car lost approximately 50 miles of range instantaneously, leaving us unable to safely reach home in life-threatening winter conditions.
