Sleeping on our tax dollars

Unable to cancel rides

Houston and SA market, I am not able to cancel rides, I hit cancel and the next screen pops up but can't choose a reason and I can not cancel, I have closed the app and opened and I have the same issue, I reboot the phone and same crap. I was forced to start the ride and then tried to cancel and that didn't work, so I swiped to complete the ride without the passenger just to get out of it.contact AI support and that was a waste of time. Anybody else having problems

Waymo again puts public safety in peril - de young Museum 4:30, 7/24/2026

Fire alarm evacuated the young Museum on Friday 7/24/2026 at 4:30. This bricked Waymo blocked additional emergency vehicles from getting to the scene. When is the city able to do something about this crap?

Edit: funny how many Waymo fanboys are ready to excuse any Waymo issue. The repost was pulled by moderators of r/waymo.

The red SFFD truck stopped, blocked by the Waymo and a car at the curb, SFFD ran out of the truck to the building, another SFFD took a photo of the bricked Waymo then headed to the deYoung. The car at the curb pulled around the Waymo and first fire truck. The Waymo stayed put. The 2nd fire truck was blocked.

Everyone was lucky - this time. There turned out to be no visible fire by the time we left after the original post. The point is that these vehicles are a continuing problem with safety in San Francisco and the issue needs to be dealt with by state officials until the cars have the bugs worked out - not before.

Wrong Way Driving in SF

This street in SoMa is one way on this block, so this Waymo just drove the wrong way to turn onto a different street, from Hallam. across Folsom, and onto Rausch. Filed a complaint with Waymo. Shame on you.

‘They’re going to kill me’: A Waymo rider was trapped inside as vandals smashed the robotaxi

SF Chronicle:

As the Waymo pulled up to a stoplight in San Francisco's Marina District around 3:30 a.m., Sherman Watson raked his eyes over the empty road. Through the darkness, he glimpsed a man in a hooded sweatshirt, striding purposefully toward the car.

The man grabbed the Waymo's front bumper, causing the autonomous vehicle to stop. A second assailant approached and the two took turns bashing the front windshield with an object that had the shape of a stick.

As the glass splintered, a voice came over the robotaxi's intercom. The car's remote assistant had noticed the car was not moving, and decided to call police. Growing frantic, Watson asked Waymo's support team when law enforcement would arrive - but they didn't know. He asked if they could move the car, and they declined, saying it was obstructed.
From the corner of his eye, Watson saw one of the assailants staring at him through the passenger-side window. The man swung "something heavy," he said, and struck the laminated glass.

"That's when I was like, 'I'm gonna die,'" Watson told the Chronicle. While dialing 911 on his cellphone, he pleaded with the intercom voice.
"Please, please, get me out of here," he said. "They're going to kill me."

His attack is the latest incident to convulse San Francisco's dominant autonomous vehicle operator as the company expands its service territory and works to build public trust. Waymo, which is owned by Silicon Valley titan Alphabet, has billed its fleet as a safe alternative to human drivers. But since launching passenger service two years ago, the company has struggled to protect riders from threatening situations when the vehicle cannot maneuver around them.
