Our cameras were near an intersection in Downtown Phoenix when two teens were seen interfering with a driverless Waymo car. One of the teens even jumped on top of the car's hood.
A self-driving car in Downtown Phoenix was harassed by teens on Mar. 24, and our cameras were there when the incident happened.
The incident happened in the area of McDowell Road and 7th Street. The night began just like any other night, but that changed when we saw two teens approach a Waymo car, stopping it in the middle of the street."The door handles are locked, and thanks to the Jaguar platform, they're tucked away, so as you can see, the cyclist wasn't even able to get into the car," said Vishay Nihalani.
The teen then got on top of the Waymo's hood, posing for a photo. The car, however, used its self-defense features to scare them off. "Once it detects that these people are interfering with the driver of the car, it emits a noise or an audio prompt that really tells these the pedestrians to please move away and let the car proceed," said Nihalani.
