Waymo recently recalled thousands of vehicles for a software issue with flood navigation, after one vehicle in San Antonio was swept into a creek.

A flash flood warning continued for Atlanta, Druid Hills, and Emory in Georgia, as per the National Weather Service.

Just like you, this storm was parked over I-75/I-85 and I-20 for nearly 2 hours (3:30pm to roughly 5:30pm), producing over 3 inches of rain.

At least two Waymo driverless vehicles drove into flooded Atlanta streets, and in at least one case, stranding an Atlanta Journal-Constitution journalist. Last night, 11Alive reported that a Waymo splashed into a flooded area on North Avenue before stalling.

New video from Mary Brathwaite’s perspective captures the moments before her husband rescued a stranded driver in Atlanta floodwaters.

Waymo temporarily pauses all U.S. freeway robotaxi operations to address construction zone performance issues while surface street routes remain active.

Waymo has temporarily halted service in four cities over concerns that its robotaxis may attempt to drive on flooded roads, the latest setback over an issue that recently led the company to recall thousands of vehicles.
