Driverless Waymo Cuts Off Another Driverless Waymo

Two driverless cars get into a standoff. November 6, 2023. Subscribe for more videos about autonomous driving!
FAQ:
Do you have more footage?
Yes, I found about 2 more seconds while going through old photos: • [Extended] Driverless ...
Why did this happen?
I don't know for sure because I wasn't paying attention. The car on the right was probably taking too long & positioned too close to the curb from dropping me off near the stop sign earlier. Also the road is very wide, even though it only has one lane in each direction. Some combination of these factors made the car on the left think it should overtake.
Isn't this super unsafe?
No I think it's pretty funny but fine otherwise. Both vehicles are driving super cautiously and reacting to each other quickly.
Why is there no turn signal?
There is, but you have to look very closely. The lights on newer cars are hard to film because of LED flicker. This happens often in bright sun. The shutter speed of the camera gets faster and doesn't sync up with the LED's refresh rate.
Why are they driving in the crosswalk?
Both cars stopped at the line, then started creeping forward to get a better view. There is no stop sign in the other direction so one must get a clear view of the road.
Should they let the pedestrians cross first?
I don't think anyone wanted to cross. I don't know the other two guys but it seemed like they were talking on the street corner for awhile. I was originally walking in the other direction, but stopped to film when I saw the second Waymo pull up.
Are driverless vehicles allowed in California?
Yes, the DMV issued driverless permits to several companies. Waymo can drive in LA as long as they don't charge money for rides.

[@manp1039]

i don't see anything wrong here.. looks like the waymo closests to the curb is figuring out something.. maybe processing where to go next after dropping someone off.. and the other waymo sees a potential obstacle and is going around the one pulled off to the side at the corner.. and going around it at the intersection.. I think that is what human drivers would do. Plus in this case, there also were humans and a dog very close which could have been a concern for the car driver closest to the curb. And once the driver figured out they didn't intend tocross into the intersection and the waymo had gone by, it then proceeded through the intersection too.

Funny but concerning. The car on the left shouldn't be risking the right turn with a car directly to its right making the same turn. Would be obvious to a human driver. Hope Waymo fixes this. EDIT: A lot of people seem to be having trouble with my comment "Would be obvious to a human driver". Humans can be assholes, so they know that what they are doing is wrong or high risk, but they do it anyway. My point is that if we want AI driving to work as intended (replace human drivers and minimize crashes), we would want it to follow the rules of the road at all times.

I thought one of them will rush into traffic and cause chaos. I hate how these greedy companies rushing AI like there is no tomorrow.

[@xxxhoodooxxx]

Who let this BS on the streets?

[@DR34M1FY]

If u see this.. this is the beginning of the end

[@chrisofstars]

A perfect example of why AI has yet to impress me

[@HyphenzaOfficial]

the terminator actually started with Ai road rage

[@sehnsehnsehn]

it feels like alot of people fail to realize how amazingly impressive and well these two driverless vehicles handled the situation, certainly not an optimal (or legal) way to drive here, BUT, they managed to get out of the situation very calmly and safely, and probably did it way smoother and with less anger than a human would've.

delulu

[@YandereDevSings]

They handed it very well and safely actually, in fact the chance of an accident happening would’ve been much higher if there were human drivers. Anyone who thinks sharing the road with AI is somehow worse or more dangerous than sharing it with the masses of senior citizen drivers or alcohol/pill addicts on the road is delusional

[@kueller917]

It's like Terminator 2 when you realize the machines are gonna fight each other this time.

[@doudymac]

Soon enough we'll have AI road rages. 😁

[@DJZ388]

I’m gonna need Waymo time before I ride in one of those.

[@plsdontbanmeagainyoulibtards]

bro stood there flabbergasted and in shambles 😭 bros really on his villain arc now

[@Smart.Potato]

The battle between AI. I’m glad I’m alive to watch this.

[@peter5.056]

Actually, those two cars were acting as one unit, and the system simply calculated that one car cutting off the other was the more efficient option.

[@tg3130]

Not to mention that the robots completely ignored the people near the crosswalk

[@guava_gary]

The people near the crosswalk aren't even crossing...these things know the people probably haven't moved since the cars started approaching from down the street. They can differentiate between a person just standing there, or a person about to move/exercising intention to move, or even if a person is on their phone and distracted.

[@YandereDevSings]

pretty sure that’s because they’re in car-centric LA/California

[@user-pp9ww2yc9x]

they were already on the crosswalk for better visibility, it would be very stupid to reverse and try to let the predestrians pass

[@tg3130]

Two Tesla Optimus robots get out and start fighting each other.

[@lucky1u]

I didn't even know driverless cars were legal.. ☹️

[@mofomoco]

Dis gonna cause waymo road rage!

[@trevorzealley729]

Imagine an F1 AI race to see which car is more aggressive .

[@jxmai7687]

become a transformer.

[@ArthurAdams1]

Looks like we've been the "futuristic AI" this entire time. Gonna add that to my resume.

[@bunberrier]

Well done!

[@dg-hughes]

AI opens a hatch and out comes a fake arm and hand. The hand extends a middle finger. Then it retracts the arm.

[@Jasmine-jx4ve]

Notice how they didn’t crash or start screaming at each other though, already got the edge on humans. 😊

[@D4RKBRU73]

Because the video was cut, the second car went into road rage mode and chased the other car to brake check it and shout insults at it

[@bige.3474]

The second car chased down the first one and sent electromagnetic pulses to jam the sensors which caused it to drive off the road.

[@paytonlefevre3519]

Soon enough they’ll be break checking on the interstate. Truly revolutionary

[@513apollo]

How you manage to the think of the worst thing that can ever happen 🤣 Sound like final destination

[@Klovar]

We have just witnessed the first battle of Waymo War One

[@EmeryAustin]

I feel like beta testing time should be greatly increased, and not done on public roads. I've seen too many reports of self driving cars causing a ruckus.

[@Kaiser-ks3yq]

People are saying the AI will learn and improve itself. But unless an accident occurs, AI is much like a corrupt police department, it will investigate itself and find nothing wrong.
