A Waymo robotaxi got stuck in a roundabout loop
Roundabouts. They trapped Clark Griswold in National Lampoon’s European Vacation and now they’ve tripped up a Waymo robotaxi. A video is circulating on social media showing a Waymo robotaxi going round and round on a roundabout – as if it is stuck in a loop.
According to a spokesperson for the company, there were no passengers onboard the vehicle in the video. The representative also stated that the issue has already been addressed by deploying a software update to its fleet.
TechCrunch reached out to Waymo for more information regarding the underlying logic that led to this strange behavior and how engineers ended up correcting for such a unique scenario.
