NY Times reports that the NHTSA still has not yet examined the Tesla robotaxi to see if it meets federal regulations.

SF Gazetteer reports that Waymo receives a phenomenal number of parking tickets in San Francisco. Clearly this means that the vehicles have been programmed to not follow traffic laws.

Bay Area Current reports on how autonomous vehicles really aren't that autonomous at all. All sorts of work is done by marginally employed humans who have to deal with the nastiest proclivities of Waymo riders.

SF Chronicle reports on a what a parent saw as a near miss when their child tripped in a crosswalk. The main question is why are Waymos behaving aggressively, even on Slow Streets, even when small children are present. If the vehicle detected that a small child was crossing the street shouldn't it have then behaved more cautiously?

CBS News reports that yet another Waymo was part of crash due to it stopping in the middle of a street (though other driver considered legally at fault). And like many other Waymo incidences, the Waymo vehicle was empty at the time, driving around being a hazard without actually providing passenger service at the time.

NY Times reports that those "edge cases" just keep on coming and Waymo is not able to handle them.
