A driverless Waymo vehicle in San Mateo ended up involving police after two 15-year-olds were reportedly accused of drinking alcohol and launching Orbeez water beads from inside the car.
Waymo’s support team alerted authorities, helped direct the vehicle to a safe parking area, and provided its location. Police later inspected the vehicle and communicated with a company representative through the car’s built-in communication system.
The situation has also sparked new discussions about privacy in autonomous vehicles. Waymo says its interior cameras are designed for safety, emergency support, lost items, and maintaining vehicle cleanliness, with live access available to support teams only during certain urgent situations.
As self-driving cars become more common, the balance between safety, technology, and privacy will continue to be debated.
