On September 14, hotel guest David Munoz captured footage in Austin, Texas, of an empty Waymo autonomous vehicle blocking an arriving fire truck during a false alarm response. The video shows the Waymo edging forward instead of yielding to the emergency vehicle in the hotel driveway. A Waymo spokesperson later stated that the vehicle paused briefly before backing up to let the fire truck pass, emphasizing the company’s commitment to working closely with first responders and improving safety protocols.
